New York Institute Fosters Advanced Manufacturing Economic Development
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced the opening of a facility dedicated to supporting the development of advanced manufacturing. The Buffalo Niagara Advanced Manufacturing Institute will serve as a research and development hub for new advanced manufacturing products and processes. Part of the Empire State Development Corporation’s Buffalo Billion initiative, the institute intends to develop flexible automation and controls, advanced materials and testing, advanced fabrication and additive manufacturing (additive manufacturing refers to the production of objects using 3D printers). The institute is a private-public partnership between the state’s Buffalo Billion initiative and EWI, a nonprofit engineering services research and development company.
