U-Path published a whitepaper highlighting how the framework for country-level manufacturing competitiveness breaks into market and government forces, with market forces focusing on talent-driven innovation, labor, materials, energy, supplier networks, and local market attractiveness, and government forces focusing on economic and tax systems, physical infrastructure, legal clarity, healthcare, and public investment in R&D and innovation.

“That framework breaks it into two forces. Market forces: talent-driven innovation, cost and availability of labor and materials, energy, supplier networks, local market attractiveness. Government forces: the economic and tax system, physical infrastructure, legal and regulatory clarity, healthcare, and public investment in R&D and innovation.”
