A career in manufacturing awaits…#GotItMadeCT
👀 ICYMI 👀 The "I Got It Made" campaign, launched by the Connecticut Office of Manufacturing, is a bold initiative to inspire Gen Z to explore rewarding careers in manufacturing. By celebrating the innovators and makers who drive Connecticut’s manufacturing industry — we're trying to authentically show why a career in manufacturing matters, not only for people's wallets, but their spirit as well. Folks have forgotten that manufacturing isn’t just about building products—it’s about building futures. Skills are served through innumerable public-private partnerships using cutting-edge technology in high-demand jobs. Whether it’s aerospace, healthcare tech, or clean energy, the possibilities in Connecticut manufacturing are limitless. And with this campaign, we’re telling that story loud and clear. #Connecticut #MakeItHere #Manufacturing
