What if every trade show, manufacturing podcast, and business resource you needed was just a few clicks away?

That’s the vision behind The Home of MFG, a new online hub created by Chris Stevens—a manufacturing leader who got tired of fragmented information and decided to build a centralized, open-access platform for the industry. In this episode, we dig into Chris’s journey from sweeping shop floors to launching an ambitious initiative aimed at organizing the chaos of manufacturing content.

We talk candidly about how hard it’s been to simply find the right events to attend or shows to listen to, and why the current landscape of Google searches and paywalls just isn’t cutting it. Chris shares the origin story behind The Home of MFG, his growing database of over 40 podcasts and hundreds of events, and how he’s turning feedback into new features, filters, and community-powered tools.

From free templates to a future podcast of his own, Chris isn’t just curating content—he’s building a digital ecosystem that brings the manufacturing community together. Whether you’re a shop owner, engineer, marketer, or maker, this conversation will leave you feeling inspired to share, connect, and contribute.
