The Utah Advanced Materials and Manufacturing Initiative (UAMMI) brings together public, private, community, industry and education partners to assure growth and sustainability of Utah’s advanced material and manufacturing industry.
According to UAMMI, its mission is to ensure that Utah is the global leader in value-added advanced materials, manufacturing, technology development and design by integrating industry, academic and government contributors in ways that enhance collaboration, promote business opportunities, share knowledge resulting from relevant research and engage a skilled and trained workforce.
UAMMI’s guiding principles center on innovating advanced materials, growth through new uses, industry solutions, relevant research and alignment.
The organization’s focus is on expanding the innovation and use of all advanced materials with a primary emphasis on carbon fiber composites, along with other materials including ceramics, biomaterials and materials yet to be developed. UAMMI fosters and encourages new uses of advanced materials in all applications, across all industries, and integral to all manufacturing. It actively seeks solutions to today’s industry-relevant problems and challenges. UAMMI encourages and supports all relevant research conducted by academic, corporate and independent researchers that leads to the discovery of new advanced materials, new uses for these materials and the adoption of new manufacturing processes that produce measurable benefits. The organization aims to leverage its resources with those from selected partners delivering services and complimentary programs in order to increase its impact and benefit to the industry.
