Ep. 132: Silicon Valley meets Fox Valley with Arzana
from NEW Manufacturing Insights · host Kate Bruns
On this week's episode of NEW Manufacturing Insights, Ann and Kate chat with two Fox Valley natives who are working on the cutting edge of innovation in the manufacturing industry: Arzana founder Marshall Kools, whose AI startup focuses on helping manufacturing companies eliminate tedious data entry tasks, and Trent Duerr, president of MillTown Paper in Neenah and a client of Arzana who says before partnering with Kools and his team, MillTown sales staff members were spending 75 to 90% of their time doing data entry.In a world where, Duerr estimates, he receives a dozen AI solution pitches a day, partnering with another Wisconsinite has been a welcome opportunity to leverage AI in a real, problem-solving way that allows his team to focus on the work that is most meaningful to them and to MillTown. Listen to our conversation with these two young professionals, sponsored by Stoke RGA (stokerga.com), on this week's episode and find out more about Arzana at arzana.com.
