The Motley Fool's industrial analyst, Isaac Pino, recently attended The Atlantic magazine's Manufacturing Summit for insight into the industry and visited General Electric's (GE -0.86%) 30 Rockefeller offices for a closer look at the $250 billion conglomerate. Isaac and Motley Fool Money host Chris Hill weigh in on the company's transformation over the past few years, its game-changing investments in 3-D printing and the industrial Internet, and the opportunity ahead for GE shareholders.

In the following segment, Isaac focuses on the new collaborative culture at GE. He talks about how allowing engineers to work more closely with manufacturing as the company shifts away from outsourcing is going to be a real driver for efficiency, and he highlights how management at GE is connecting with clients in new and more collaborative ways.
