Manufacturing - Alive and Well in Connecticut

“Americans remain steadfast in their commitment to creating a strong, healthy, globally competitive manufacturing sector in the United Sates, no matter the prevailing winds.”

          Wall Street Journal: US Factories Buck Decline, J. Hagerty, 1/19/11

"When asked which industries are most important to the nation economy, manufacturing is near the top of the list, topped only by energy."

          The Deloitte and Manufacturing institute 2011 Annual Index

"Because the manufacturing sector is such a vital component of the Connecticut economy, businesses, policy leaders, and educators must work together to help create the next generation of manufacturing employees in the state."

          Connecticut Business and Industry’s, CBIA’s, 2011 survey of Connecticut’s Manufacturing Workforce
