Swisslog Healthcare and Boulder Chamber Manufacturing Group
"We're thankful for Swisslog Healthcare providing a unique venue for the Manufacturing Sector Partnership to gather," said Matt Wiggins, AVP of Economic Vitality & Special Projects at the Boulder Chamber. "These collaborative sessions help strengthen our manufacturing community and develop solutions for shared challenges across the region."
The quarterly meeting marked an important milestone as the partnership enters its fourth year of operations. Key focus areas for 2026 include cultivating a strong workforce pipeline for manufacturing talent, connecting industry professionals to resources for operational challenges, and facilitating connections between industry and public partners in workforce development, economic development, and policy making.
"Swisslog Healthcare is happy to be part of the manufacturing and business community in the greater Denver area," said Cathy McKinney, Director of Operations at Swisslog Healthcare. "By hosting events like this, we not only showcase our innovative solutions but also contribute to building a stronger, more collaborative manufacturing ecosystem that benefits the entire region."
The meeting featured presentations from industry experts, including Jeff Sidders from the Colorado Department of Labor & Employment's Division of Vocational Rehabilitation, who highlighted services connecting employers with qualified candidates with disabilities. Sidders shared key statistics showing that approximately 35% of all students have a disability and unemployment for individuals with disabilities is roughly double that of those without. The presentation emphasized how inclusive hiring practices can address workforce shortages while reducing turnover and recruitment costs.
Additional presentations included insights from Scott Prindle and Dave Moore of Spatial Matters, who demonstrated how spatial computing technologies offer significant advantages for manufacturing training and workforce development through immersive learning experiences. Attendees concluded the session with a tour of Swisslog Healthcare's manufacturing facility, where they participated in hands-on demonstrations of the company's Pneumatic Tube Transport System, which streamlines hospital workflows by significantly reducing transport times for critical materials.
