To support this effort, the coalition, which includes city governments and local universities, proposes four complementary, collaborative and aligned construction and non-construction projects: 1) expanding a water line to support manufacturing; 2) developing a manufacturing area in the region; 3) providing education, entrepreneurship and business acceleration, and other support for advanced manufacturing; and 4) developing sites for advanced manufacturing businesses.
