Abstract
![CDATA[Reports of the decline in Australia’s manufacturing sector are usually coupled with calls for the need to revitalise the sector, often drawing attention to the importance of innovation and digitisation in a new technology-driven era of manufacturing. Policy and industry developments also underscore the significance of “advanced manufacturing". But a mechanism for facilitating the sector’s transition to advanced manufacturing is rarely articulated.
