Open House at Boise State New Product Development Lab & studio\Blu

Thanks to all who attended TechHelp’s open house at the New Product Development Lab and studio\Blu at Boise State on May 10, 2022.  The event was led by Grey Beaudry (L) and Steve Hatten who represent two points in the New Product Development Lab (NPD) evolution at Boise State. Steve (now TechHelp’s Executive Director) founded the lab around 20 years ago and guided student employees in designing, developing, and launching scads of new products. Many of those students now play key roles in Idaho’s manufacturing sector. 

Former NPD Student Employee Grey Beaudry returned to manage the NPD Lab in 2020 after gaining valuable industry experience. Grey assembled a diverse and multi-skilled team that is taking the lab in new directions as part of the studio\Blu program at Boise State.
