Navigating the Headwinds: U.S. Manufacturing Threats & Challenges in 2025

Join our panelists as we explore the key forces challenging U.S. manufacturing in 2025—from ongoing supply chain disruptions and rising operational costs to the growing impact of inflation. We’ll also dive into the complex role of trade policies and tariffs, which, despite their intent to support domestic industry, have led to increased costs and strategic pullbacks. In addition, we’ll examine mounting regulatory pressures—ranging from environmental compliance to shifting labor and safety standards—that are reshaping operational strategies across the sector. Join us for a candid look at these pressing challenges and how industry leaders are adapting to stay competitive
