We’re proud to announce that MACNY, The Manufacturers Association of Central New York, has been recognized as one of City & State’s 2026 Top Trade Associations.
This honor highlights organizations making a meaningful impact across New York State and beyond. For 113 years, MACNY has worked alongside manufacturers, strengthening New York’s manufacturing workforce and supporting the continued growth of the industry.
The recognition comes during a year of significant progress, including the launch of the Manufacturers Talent Institute (MTI), a nonprofit dedicated to cultivating New York’s manufacturing workforce through a seamless model of early engagement and lifelong learning. MTI brings together proven workforce development initiatives under one statewide organization, strengthening connections between individuals seeking rewarding manufacturing careers and employers working to build diverse, sustainable talent pipelines that meet today’s workforce needs while preparing for tomorrow’s opportunities.
Thank you to City & State for this recognition and to the manufacturing community whose continued support makes this work possible.
