About the American Manufacturing Communities Collaborative (AMCC)

AMCC is a non-profit organization assembled and led by a group of regional and national stakeholders dedicated to strengthening collaboration within and between regional manufacturing communities. AMCC works to achieve sustainable development in America through economic growth, improved environmental performance, and inclusive well-paid job creation to support the revitalization of American manufacturing. 


Born out of an interagency program, the Investing in Manufacturing Communities Partnership (IMCP), AMCC was created as a national organization of regional stakeholders to continue the important work of deepening connections and sharing best practices within community ecosystems and between manufacturing regions. AMCC has championed the bottom-up, community-driven model of building ecosystems of support to help manufacturers thrive, and was recently designated by the U.S. EDA as the nation’s manufacturing Community of Practice. AMCC supports regional consortia organized to strengthen manufacturing in any number of public/private initiatives to include federal agency community designation programs like IMCP, DOD’s DMCSP, the EDA’s BBBRC and their emerging Tech Hub program.

Tremendous Opportunity Amid Tremendous Change: Illinois’ Manufacturing Excellence with Ray Ziganto
In this episode of Manufacturing an American Century, Matt chats with Ray Zaganto, Partner Relations Manager at IMEC (Illinois Manufacturing Excellence Center), to discuss why the future of our manufacturing sector depends on innovation, collaboration, and a national strategy. Ray didn’t hold back in sharing his passion for bringing real, lasting change to the industry. We talked about the crucial role of IMEC and how they’ve been helping small and medium-sized manufacturers not just survive but thrive by adopting new technologies and building stronger businesses.  One of Ray’s key points is how we’ve got to engage the next generation early—starting at the grade-school level, not just with high schoolers. He shared how nonprofits like GCAMP in Chicago are making that connection between students, parents, and the exciting world of modern manufacturing. We also dove into some big challenges, like the decline in casting and forging for defense manufacturing, and why we need to rebuild that capability to keep America’s defense industrial base strong and resilient. Ray also stressed the importance of a growth mindset in the manufacturing world. Too many companies hesitate to innovate, but as Ray pointed out, sticking your head in the sand is not a strategy. You’ve got to invest in your future. We wrapped up by talking about the need for a cultural shift—manufacturing has to become a core part of our communities, and companies need to stay engaged with their ecosystem of support to succeed. This episode is packed with insights on how we can all work together to strengthen American manufacturing for the long haul, thanks Ray!

Participants:Ray Ziganto, Partner Relations Manager, Illinois Manufacturing Excellence CenterMatt Bogoshian: Executive Director, American Manufacturing Communities Collaborative and host of the podcast. 💡 Key Ideas:Start Early with Workforce Development: It’s not enough to reach high schoolers anymore. We need to connect with grade-school students and their parents to show them what modern manufacturing really looks like and how exciting those careers can be.Adopt a Growth Mindset: Manufacturers can’t afford to stay stuck in the past. Ray made it clear that if you're not looking for ways to innovate and improve, you’re falling behind. Embracing technology is crucial for long-term success.IMEC’s Role in the Ecosystem: IMEC is doing great work supporting small and medium-sized manufacturers by helping them adopt new tech and improve operations. Ray’s team is driving real impact, proving that even small investments can lead to big returns.Collaboration is Key: No one can do it alone. Ray emphasized the importance of manufacturers, government, and community organizations all working together to build a stronger industry and a more connected manufacturing ecosystem. 🔗Links to Learn More:Find Ray on LinkedinLearn more about IMEC.Read IMEC’s survey on advanced technology adoption rates by their SMMs.Follow AMCC on Linkedin.Find Matt on Linkedin.Visit our website.
