The latest episode of NEW Manufacturing Insights, a joint podcast of the Northeast Wisconsin Manufacturing Alliance (NEWMA) and Insight on Manufacturing (IOM) magazine sponsored throughout the month of December by ICON Marketing, is now available for streaming and download.
New episodes will be posted on Thursdays at www.spreaker.com/show/new-manufacturing-insights, as well as through Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, Google Podcasts and Amazon.
In the Dec. 7 episode, co-hosts Ann Franz of NEWMA and Kate Bruns of IOM spoke to Dan Ariens, CEO of AriensCo in Brillion.
Ariens talked about front office changes coming up at AriensCo in the new year, the company’s celebration of its 90th anniversary in 2023, as well as about the Brillion Works development and of course the Ariens Nordic Center, which opened last year and recently earned official designation as a USA Biathlon training center.
“The Nordic Center is one of those interesting projects that I don’t think too many other manufacturers would get involved in,” Ariens told the hosts. “I’m really excited about an official season of Nordic skiing and biathlon training out there. When you look around the United States for official Olympic training sites of any kind in any sport, there really aren’t that many. So here we are in Brillion, Wisconsin, a silly lawnmower company and snowblower company involved in Olympic skiing. It’s really exciting.”

The next episode of NEW Manufacturing Insights, produced for NEWMA and Insight by Woodward Radio Group, will be released Thursday, Dec. 14.
