From 1980 – 2010, early-stage product
firms slowly moved to commercialized
mass production in overseas
manufacturing facilities. Within this
entire generation, the U.S. lost its capacity
to manufacture and produce high-tech
products or even source rare earth
minerals; areas in which the U.S.
formerly led.
Led by the Factory UnlockedTM founder,
the “New App for Making It In America”
project examined these issues and
captured the attention of the White
House Office of Science and Technology.
President Obama proposed and included
a national policy initiative to support
start-up manufacturing in his 2014 State
of the Union speech. Since then, this
initiative has been the catalyst generating
the momentum for addressing this
market gap.
From this initiative, Factory Unlocked
provides the tools and technology
startups require to prototype, scale,
and commercialize in the U.S. It also
guides startups on how to design for
manufacturing and trains individuals
in the state-of-the-art digitization
processes of both product design
and commercialization.
