MMA, Michigan Manufacturers Association gathered Thursday evening November 9th for the MFG Excellence Awards.

This new program recognizes excellence in manufacturing by honoring those who make a positive impact in their community and in their industry. In addition to celebrating Michigan's manufacturing community, attendees heard exceptional stories of world-class leaders and learn practices they can apply in their own business.

MBN was on hand for interviews and captured excerpts from the night. Here are some scenes from around that gathering a sold-out inaugural event at the Crowne Plaza Lansing West.

We apologize for some issues with photos we posted here previously! In lieu of that enjoy a FaceBook album we reassembled from some of that evening's shots.
