Advanced manufacturing in New England: strategies for tapping the potential

James Brett and Mike Reopel

Communities and Banking, 2010, issue Fall, 6-8

Abstract: Even though the high-yield manufacturing industry has shown longevity, very few people believe that the future of manufacturing in New England lies in producing low-tech goods in high volumes. Traditional manufacturing has been on the decline for years, and to remain competitive, a strategic approach is necessary, one that capitalizes on New England?s strengths. A mix of highly skilled and educated workers, engineers, business developers, and financiers makes the region uniquely suited to excel in advanced manufacturing.
