Urban Manufacturing Alliance
The Urban Manufacturing Alliance (UMA)is a national coalition of manufacturing practitioners working together to grow more equitable and prosperous economies in cities by building robust, environmentally sustainable, and inclusive urban manufacturing sectors. UMA advances place-based strategies that create more equitable communities by building wealth through employment, ownership, and entrepreneurship. UMA connects and convenes our network across cities, helping them learn from one another, and acts as a collaborative ecosystem builder that supports local manufacturing communities and a national movement.
