Support for IMC and the National Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) Program

For almost 30 years, IMC has been helping Central Pennsylvania manufacturers become more innovative, productive and profitable.  We have been able to do this, in part, due to support from the U.S. Department of Commerce, NIST Manufacturing Extension Partnership program.

A recent study by the W.E. Upjohn Institute found that the MEP Program generates a substantial economic and financial return of nearly 9:1.  Yes, a federal investment that works!

Please take 5 minutes to e-mail your federal elected officials asking them to support a $142.4 million appropriation for MEP, which helps support IMC’s operations.
