Vision for US leadership in advanced manufacturing released

October 13, 2022
By: Jonathan Dillon

Creating a vison for United States leadership in advanced manufacturing, the National Science and Technology Council has released a strategy to grow the economy, create jobs, enhance environmental sustainability, address climate change, strengthen supply chains, ensure national security, and improve healthcare for the next four years. The 2022 National Strategy for Advanced Manufacturing, developed by the Subcommittee on Advanced Manufacturing (SAM), provides a number of recommendations to help achieve those goals.

The strategy report outlines three interrelated goals: 1) Develop and implement advanced manufacturing technologies; 2) Grow the advanced manufacturing workforce; and, 3) Build resilience into manufacturing supply chains.

In support of these goals, SAM established 11 different objectives to pursue over the next four years, including introducing more sustainable manufacturing in support of decarbonization, expediting innovation for semiconductors, supporting the bioeconomy through advanced manufacturing and developing stronger connections between employers and education institutions. More information is available on the Manufacturing USA website.
