centers in the United States. According to research from the Dayton

Region Manufacturers Association, the

industry employs 114,411 workers or 15.26%

of the area’s workforce. That workforce is

supported by the region’s 40 colleges and

universities that provide education and

job training. Between 2009 and 2013, the

manufacturing industry invested $2.3 billion

in the area by expanding or constructing

200 facilities and creating more than 12,000

jobs. The industry’s growth — especially in

aerospace and electronics — is supported by

a unique combination of factors: abundant

water resources, efficient transportation

networks, and a historic knack for innovation.

Manufacturing has been and will continue

to be critical for the economic and national

security of the United States, which makes

the Dayton region a vital investment in the

country’s future.
