Reindustrialization is a catch-all description of moves by government and industry to reinvigorate domestic manufacturing amid other countries’ investments on that front, especially China.Lauren Williams, our Defense One colleague and a senior editor there, joins our Ross Wilkers for this episode to explore how the industry they cover is a part of that larger push to build more systems in America and use new advanced technology to do it.Much of their discussion is informed by Lauren’s attendance of a mid-July conference in Detroit called the Reindustrialize Summit, which sought to bring together tech companies and investors with a keen interest in manufacturing.Flying boats and AI-run factories pitched at 'Reindustrialize' eventZapping drone swarms into submissionMeet the ‘cobots’ that could lower the cost of building submarinesSECNAV: Robots won’t replace shipbuilders, but they could make jobs ‘easier’Hadrian secures $260M in Series C capital
