The Titanium Economy: How Industrial Technology Can Create a Better, Faster, Stronger America

By Asutosh Padhi, Gaurav Batra, Nick Santhanam

Book Overview

A Wall Street Journal bestseller

The future of the American economy is hiding in an unlikely place: the manufacturing sector

While Silicon Valley titans dominate headlines, many of the fastest-growing, most profitable companies in the United States are firms you've likely never heard of, such as HEICO, Trex, and Casella. These booming companies belong to a burgeoning sector--industrial tech--that offers surprising hope to workers, consumers, and investors alike.

Their role: to make a range of products--aerospace parts, for example, or recycled plastic lumber--that quietly form the backbone of America's biggest industries.

In an age of instability, industrial tech is a cornerstone of our economic future. In this book, McKinsey veterans Asutosh Padhi, Gaurav Batra, and Nick Santhanam reveal the "titanium economy," a modern, reinvented industrial sector complete with high-paying, domestic jobs;, soaring stock prices;, and critical infrastructure. They dispel the myth that the best of American manufacturing is behind us and illuminate an opportunity for a brighter future--if we can seize it.
