Murphy Company was proud to sponsor last week’s ISPE Rocky Mountain Chapter Educational Event at KBI Biopharma’s Boulder office! It was a great afternoon of connecting with young professionals across the bioscience and pharmaceutical industries.
We heard from Tom Kelland, CEng MIChemE PMP, Senior Director of Facilities & Engineering at KBI, who shared lessons from his early career, advice on committing to continuous learning, and best practices for developing skills that align with broader company goals to strengthen your team. Shout out to Aiden Elizondo (KBI Process Engineer) for his detailed presentation on “A Day in the Life at KBI Boulder”. We also enjoyed hearing from Sean Sellers with Swagelok, who highlighted how their hose and product solutions can significantly boost product yield and prevent costly failures.
A big thank-you to Julie Stiff and KBI Biopharma for hosting, and to Swagelok for co-sponsoring this event with us!
