The Greater Reading Chamber Alliance (GRCA) convenes the Manufacturing Industry Partnership of the Greater Reading Region. This MFG IP works to support the manufacturing sector as well as its workforce needs.
The focus of this partnership is to convene leaders in the manufacturing industry around shared challenges, opportunities, and programming. With the support of educational partners and workforce development organizations, this public-private partnership brings all stakeholders to the table to create solutions for sustainable change to ensure economic growth and success.
The Priority Action Teams are:
- Talent attraction
