GBIG’s Sponsor Appreciation Night: A Grand Gesture of Thanks
Thanks to everyone who attended the GBIG Sponsor Appreciation event on Nov. 14 at The Automobile Gallery in downtown Green Bay. It was great to get together in person to socialize with others in the 5P Industries.
Since its start in 2017, GBIG has grown to 180 sponsors. More than 50 sponsors and guests attended the Appreciation Night. We had a chance to enjoy a buffet prepared by Olive’s Pizza and Sandwiches and chocolate brownies by Naturally Delightful Specialty Bakery. We also had an opportunity to network, reconnect with others in the industry and meet new people involved with the 5P Industries: Paper, Pulp, Plastic, Print, Packaging and Converting.
The Automobile Gallery was the perfect place to meet. We had an opportunity to see the gallery’s amazing collection of cars – antique gems, beautifully restored classic cars, awe-inspiring luxury automobiles, and all kinds of fun vehicles! The vibrant colors and wide variety of styles are really impressive!
Thanks to Bill Koehne, owner of Packerland Websites, for his presentation midway through the Sponsor Appreciation event. Bill spoke about GBIG’s purpose: to bring Wisconsin 5P Industry companies together for networking, collaboration, and innovation; offer educational opportunities; and support the community. He also highlighted GBIG’s activities, like the golf outing, Swing Big with GBIG, Children’s Museum Green Bay events, and educational meetings at UW-Madison. Additionally, Bill talked about the difference GBIG makes in the community. GBIG supports about 20 professional, charitable, and educational organizations – and the list keeps on growing.
Packerland Websites manages the GBIG website and works with Marty Ochs to publish the GBIG News. Bill and Marty encouraged sponsors to submit their company updates to reach a broad audience via the GBIG website and GBIG News.
So, be proud to be a GBIG sponsor, and get involved! We look forward to supporting and growing the 5P and Converting Industry in 2025 and beyond.
