This past year brought renewed collective focus on harnessing the power of technology to accelerate manufacturing and bolster economic and national security for communities and the nation. From once-in-a-generation legislation to bolster U.S. manufacturing via the CHIPS and Science Act, the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, and the Inflation Reduction Act, to increased leverage of public-private partnerships, Manufacturing USA is poised to deliver even more impact through advanced manufacturing technology, ecosystem growth, and workforce development efforts. 

Through the Manufacturing USA® network, our agencies support a coalition of partners collaborating to secure U.S. global leadership in advanced manufacturing. Through large-scale technology, supply chain and ecosystem, and workforce development initiatives, we are helping ensure that what’s invented here is made here by a skilled American workforce. The manufacturing innovation institutes sponsored by our agencies and participating in the network serve as unique public-private partners helping make our vision a reality.
