For four years, the Council’s USMCI identified critical research, innovation and policy trends contributing to the re-emergence of America’s high-value, advanced and productive domestic manufacturing sector.
The Council is proud to trace key accomplishments in manufacturing policy and innovation back to its thought leadership and advocacy, including the America COMPETES Act and the recently launched National Network for Manufacturing Innovation (NNMI) — centers of excellence that bring together businesses, government and academia to meet grand technological challenges with the potential to unleash generations of American manufacturing innovation, jobs and prosperity.
