The National Manufacturing Institute Scotland (NMIS) has opened its new flagship facility at the Advanced Manufacturing Innovation District Scotland (AMIDS) in Renfrewshire.
Aiming to act as a magnet for manufacturing in Scotland and across the globe, the heather-coloured, 11,500 sq m, operationally carbon neutral campus next to Glasgow Airport will support manufacturing, engineering and technology businesses of all sizes.
Scotland’s manufacturing sector employs more than 179,000 people and is responsible for more than 50% of the country’s international exports and 47% of business expenditure on research and development.
