As manufacturing makes a resurgence in the United States, it helps to draw focus on growth and challenges of the industry. That's the advantage of Company Week, The Voice of the Rocky Mountain Manufacturing Economy. Company Week is a digital media platform dedicated to sharing the latest news, technology, and other advances.

Bart Taylor, Founder of Company Week, joins us in a Pro-Business Colorado Edition of Connect and Collaborate, where he shares that he identified the need for a information on the regional manufacturing economy, here and in the Rocky Mountain West.

Taylor saw the surge surge of maker and manufacturing businesses in Colorado, including craft beer and organic and natural foods. By offering a platform for manufacturers, Taylor hopes he's contributing to the growth of America's industrial capability.

Also in this week's show, we talk with John Buck, a self-described writer and student of the subjects of Leadership, Legacy and Relationships. Buck describes one's professional as divided into thirds, the final third being retirement. He admits that everything changes then, from the frequency of interactions with others, to being challenged throughout the day. John Buck encourages everyone to consider their legacy, and to start now!
