Idaho's Cocoa Bombs Sweetened Our Day at IMA MFG Trade Show
TechHelp was proud to join the Idaho Manufacturing Alliance at the only manufacturing-focused industry tradeshow in Idaho. The event took place on Thursday, December 2, 2021, from 10:00 am – 6:00 pm MST at the Boise Centre. We enjoyed coming together as an industry to do some business, engage in learning, and gain some new contacts and tools as we head into 2022!
IMA was thrilled to have Mack & Ria Story of Blue-Collar Leadership and Top Story Leadership as keynote and breakout speakers at this event!
TechHelp’s New Product Development, Food Manufacturing, and Operational Excellence teams were well represented at our booth as were our partners from Vessel and studio\Blu. There were plenty of opportunities to visit with attendees and attend interesting breakout sessions.
Eric Torres Garcia of Cocoa Bombs made
our day by bringing samples of his exciting products to our booth. Eric has worked with TechHelp and our partners in a number of ways as shown in this video produced by Vessel. Eric helped us provide a sweet finish to the day by hosting a drawing for Cocoa Bomb products.Â
Former TechHelp NPD employee Dan Brown, now of Custom Fluid Power, gave a great demonstration of the power and simplicity of robots by programming one to drop a Cocoa Bomb into a cup of hot milk. It took Dan 10 minutes to program a robot to complete that task.Â
