CyManII Texas Stakeholder Town Hall - Shaping the 2026–2030 National Strategic Plan for Advanced Manufacturing

The San Antonio Manufacturers Association (SAMA) is proud to support CyManII in promoting this important Texas stakeholder town hall connected to a White House–led initiative shaping the future of U.S. advanced manufacturing.

Every four years, the National Science and Technology Council develops the National Strategic Plan for Advanced Manufacturing to guide federal research and development priorities that drive job creation, economic growth, innovation, and national security. The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy has officially launched the process for the 2026–2030 Strategic Plan, and stakeholder input is a critical component.

CyManII, in partnership with the Lone Star Cyber Forge, will host this half-day town hall to gather perspectives from Texas leaders across manufacturing, cybersecurity, workforce development, and innovation.

This is a unique opportunity for SAMA members to engage directly with leaders helping shape the national advanced manufacturing agenda and to ensure Texas priorities are well represented in the next federal strategic plan.
