A turning point for excellence in American manufacturing
Introducing the Manufacturing Supplier Innovation Awards US 2025
I am thrilled to introduce the winners of the inaugural Manufacturing Supplier Innovation Awards US 2025! Following the huge success of our UK program, we are delighted to bring this essential recognition to the dynamic and powerful US manufacturing sector.
The American manufacturing transformation
The US manufacturing sector is undergoing a profound transformation, one uniquely focused on digitalization, resilience, and sustainability. This evolution is fuelled by a national push for reshoring and major domestic investment, accelerating the industry’ s drive toward modernization. At the heart of this process are the suppliers, technology, and service providers delivering the tools and strategies manufacturers rely on to thrive.
It is in this spirit of essential partnership that Manufacturing Today launched the Manufacturing Supplier Innovation Awards US 2025 to recognize the trailblazers behind the scenes. These awards celebrate excellence in solutions, services, and partnerships that are reshaping how manufacturing is done, from smart factory technologies to energy optimization and supply chain transparency, and beyond.
