The North American Manufacturing Research Institution of SME (NAMRI/SME) has announced a new position paper titled, “Advanced Manufacturing Initiatives: A National Imperative,” that addresses the current state of manufacturing in the United States, makes several recommendations to drive the economy and offers support to various initiatives.
“America’s manufacturing sector holds significant promise for expansion and job creation,” said Shreyes Melkote, PhD, president of NAMRI/SME. “The impact of advanced manufacturing technologies extends to other sectors of the economy, with manufacturers contributing more on a dollar-for-dollar basis than any other sector.”
“The NAMRI/SME paper addresses several key U.S. advanced manufacturing initiatives, and NAMRI encourages investments in the scientific and engineering enterprise to generate new technologies, industries and jobs.”
