Manufacturing Millennial to Headline NEPIRC’s Annual Manufacturing Day Best Practices Summit & Expo When younger generations think of manufacturing, many often picture dimly lit, dangerous and outdated work environments, but that is not a fair or accurate view of today’s manufacturing scene according to industry advocate Jake Hall, known as the “Manufacturing Millennial.” He is on a mission to educate younger people by meeting them where they are—on social media. Hall will address the future of manufacturing, effective social media use for manufacturers and much more when the Northeastern Pennsylvania Industrial Resource Center (NEPIRC) welcomes him as keynote speaker at its 2025 Manufacturing Day (MFG DAY) Best Practices Summit & Expo—the region’s largest manufacturing trade show and networking event of its kind—on Oct. 3, at Mohegan Pennsylvania in Wilkes-Barre. “We’re so excited to have Jake Hall as our MFG DAY keynote speaker addressing the topic of ‘The Future of Manufacturing: Technology and Workforce.’ Jake is an influential advocate for manufacturing, automation and skilled trades. His content is effective at educating the future workforce about the manufacturing industry, which is why we believe our Manufacturing Day attendees will be energized by his message and gain valuable insight,” said Chelsey Coslett-Traver, NEPIRC’s manager of marketing & stakeholder engagement. Considered one of the loudest voices in the industry and awarded by LinkedIn as the Top Voice in Robotics, Automation and Manufacturing, Hall is helping companies future-proof their businesses with technology and attract the workforce of tomorrow. Coslett-Traver said Hall is helping to revolutionize the way people and companies present through social media. With more than 100,000 followers and 150,000,000+ views on his content channels, Hall ignites conversations about the latest in manufacturing and automation to excite the current and future workforce about the manufacturing industry. Coslett-Traver added that Hall’s desire to influence the future workforce aligns closely with the goals of NEPIRC’s innovative Manufacturing Ambassador Dream Team initiative that increases high school and college student awareness of outstanding careers available within Pennsylvania’s advanced manufacturing field. She said Hall helps to reach the future workforce with programs like his “Discover Manufacturing” and MiCareerQuest, which introduce 20,000 high school students to manufacturing each year in west Michigan. In addition to delivering the keynote presentation, Hall will also lead a breakout session entitled, “The Power of Social Media: What You Should Do.” MFG DAY sponsorship opportunities are available but going quickly!
