MAC PROGRAM FOR BUILDING A DECK FOR RESTAURANT PLUS
The United States enjoyed a lead in manufacturing for over 100 years – a lead that has since eroded as others have taken advantage of lower-wage labor markets plus other factors to draw industry away from the heartland. Manufacturing is an economic engine that drives innovation and prosperity while improving our quality of life with a wide range of useful products.
IN-MaC does so by mobilizing its resources, expertise and network to strengthen the relationship between workforce education, technology adoption, and manufacturing research to elevate Indiana as the manufacturing destination of choice. IN-MaC creates a stronger, more competitive manufacturing ecosystem for Indiana and the nation.
