Big News! The Coghlin Builders Lab is coming to MBI!
It is with great excitement and pride that I share that the WPI / MBI BioHub project has officially been awarded funding by the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative! This funding will support innovative renovations at MBI’s 17 Briden Street headquarters (formerly CT's founding headquarters ��), including the Coghlin Builder’s Lab, a highly equipped technology incubation space dedicated to advancing Life Sciences and Medical device design and prototype development. This exciting milestone aligns deeply with our passion for supporting innovation, growth, and opportunity right here in Central Massachusetts.
We believe our pledge to this initiative reinforces our commitment to investing in the future of manufacturing, engineering talent, and entrepreneurial innovation, as well as our four-generation philosophy of giving back to the community that has given our family so much. We view this as an opportunity to help shape the next generation of MedTech and hardware solutions, strengthen our regional ecosystem, and support the innovators and builders who will drive tomorrow’s cures and equipment breakthroughs.
We’re overwhelmingly excited to be part of this collaboration and look forward to capturing the deep-rooted history of Columbia Tech, Cogmedix, and The Coghlin Companies in this world-class new space in a very powerful and visually innovative way, reviving WHERE IT ALL BEGAN!
We cannot wait to show you all the before and after photos!! ��

A little extra awareness and a few good habits go a long way in keeping everyone safe, healthy, and winter-ready!
Winter in New England brings icy walkways, heavy snow, and cold-season germs. This season, we’re focusing on simple ways to keep our Coghlin community safe and healthy: preventing slips and falls, lifting smart, staying alert, and keeping ahead of cold and flu season.
