High-Tech, High-Touch, and Manufacturing's Triple Bottom Line Open Access

Adam Friedman has led efforts to strengthen manufacturing in New York City and nationally since the mid-1990s. As the Pratt Center's director, he is co-convener of the Urban Manufacturing Alliance, a national network dedicated to advancing federal, state, and local policy and sharing best practices among businesses, researchers, and governments.

Joan Byron now leads the Pratt Center's policy development and advocacy work; her prior projects include the Center's Transportation Equity initiative, and support of local coalitions working for the reclamation of the Bronx River and the removal of the Sheridan Expressway.
