WASHINGTON STATE BUILDING BUSINESS LEGENDS New materials for a new age It wasn’t too many years ago that automobiles were built of steel, aircraft of aluminum and boats of teak. My how times have changed. Today, composites and other advanced materials, tools and technologies are revolutionizing the marketplace, creating significant opportunities for Washington companies to invent new products that were science fiction just a decade or so ago. Washington is one of the few places in the United States – if not the world – where the entire supply chain is accessible, from design, engineering and prototyping to raw fiber, molds, rapid set autoclaves and robotics. Indeed, the opportunity to invest or expand in Washington has never been better as the advanced manufacturing sector continues to identify new markets, technologies and materials. Washington’s Competitive Strengths • Low cost, renewable energy – lowest in the nation • No corporate or personal income tax • 75 ports, 11 deep draft • Large pool of highly skilled, highly qualified workers • #1 – Best States (U.S. News & World Report, 2019) • #2 – Most Innovative State (WalletHub, 2019) Industry Incentives Include: • Tax exemption for machinery and equipment • Reduced business taxes for research and development • Reduced business taxes for the manufacturing of advanced material
