AUTHOR President's Council of Advisors on Scie; Penny Hill Press; Executive Office of the President
PUBLISHER Createspace Independent Publishing Platform (09/05/2016)
PRODUCT TYPE Paperback (Paperback)

Description
The United States has been the leading producer of manufactured goods for more than 100 years, and the manufacturing sector is once again adding jobs and opening new factories at its fastest rate in two decades. The United States has long thrived as a result of its ability to manufacture goods and sell them to global markets. Manufacturing drives knowledge production and innovation in the United States by supporting two-thirds of private sector research and development and by employing the vast majority of U.S. scientists, engineers, and technicians to invent and produce new products. Yet, in the 2000's, manufacturing faced major employment declines as factories were shuttered. U.S. strengths in manufacturing innovation and technologies that have sustained American leadership in manufacturing are under threat from new and growing competition abroad.In its July 2012 inaugural report, Report to the President on Capturing Domestic Competitive Advantage in Advanced Manufacturing, the first Advanced Manufacturing Partnership (AMP) called for a full court press to increase U.S. competitiveness for advanced manufacturing by sustaining U.S. investments in science, technology, and innovation; establishing a National Network of Manufacturing Innovation Institutes - a set of public - private partnerships to build shared high - tech facilities and advance U.S. leadership in emerging technologies; upgrading community-college workforce training programs and deploying the talent of returning veterans to meet critical manufacturing skills needs; and improving the business climate for manufacturing investment through tax, regulatory, energy, and other policies.
