Indian founders, CEOs to train US talent under new American programme to boost domestic manufacturing

The US has launched a new training program called "Foundry School" aimed at boosting domestic manufacturing by training American engineering and technical talent with expertise from India and other partner nations, including Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea. The initiative, part of the Pax Silica partnership, will focus on areas such as modern factory design, materials and supply chains, regulations, workforce development, and assembly line engineering.

Eight US universities will host the program, with sessions starting in September 2026. The State Department is working with Congress to support the participation of Pax Silica economies and is collaborating with Stanford University to develop the curriculum for both US and foreign participants.
