About the Georgia Tech Manufacturing Institute at the Georgia Institute of Technology
The Georgia Tech Manufacturing Institute (GTMI) is one of Georgia Tech's ten interdisciplinary research institutes (IRI's) and part of the broader Georgia Tech research enterprise. GTMI¿s major areas of research and development are on the design and development of advanced manufacturing systems targeting secure digital manufacturing, additive and subtractive processes, and large-scale production enterprises. Furthermore, GTMI is focused on the scale-up of manufacturing capabilities from laboratory and benchtop scale to pilot plant operations. The institute works with all of Georgia Tech's colleges, the Enterprise Innovation Institute (EI2), the Georgia Manufacturing Extension Partnership (GaMEP), other IRIs, and the Georgia Tech Research Institute. We collaborate in a cross-discipline way to fully harness GT's strengths and resources.
Georgia AI Manufacturing (Georgia AIM) is a state-wide initiative funded by the U.S. Department of Commerce's Economic Development Administration (EDA) to support a statewide initiative that combines artificial intelligence and manufacturing innovations with transformational workforce and outreach programs. Georgia AIM is revolutionizing the industrial economy of Georgia and the nation through the equitable, development and deployment of talent and innovation in artificial intelligence (AI) for all manufacturing sectors. Georgia AIM develops, promulgates, and implements models for activating AI manufacturing, ensuring (1) the engagement and participation of underserved populations and communities and (2) the resilience of U.S. manufacturing from future shocks and global competition.
