LLLPT Division Meeting VEW 2025

- (3:30 - 4:30pm EDT)

You will not want to miss our dynamic guest speaker, Jeffrey VanKuren, who specializes in Lean Manufacturing (a topic of great interest to many of you according to our recent division survey). His presentation, Sharper Vision: A Common-Sense Approach for Optical Manufacturers, will explore how Lean can enhance your business by capitalizing on your lab's "low hanging fruit" and by taking advantage of relevant Lean tools.

Jeffrey VanKuren is a dynamic executive leader with two decades of experience driving operational excellence, organizational transformation, and sustainable performance across world-class companies including Danaher, Fortive, and National Dentex Corporation. Recognized for his ability to turn strategy into results, Jeffrey combines deep expertise in Lean Manufacturing, Kaizen facilitation, and Six Sigma with a proven track record of improving profitability, streamlining processes, and building high-performing teams.

Meeting will be held in The Venetian Las Vegas, Expo Meeting Rooms #404.
