Abstract: Global manufacturing is experiencing a critical period of industrial transformation and structural adjustment. On one hand, the reindustrialization of developed countries is not simply the reshoring of traditional manufacture industry, but rather the promotion of higher-level emerging industries with more advanced technology and higher added value. On the other hand, the production and organization mode of manufacturing have changed thoroughly, influenced and promoted by IT, internet and advanced materials. Many countries and regions have launched programs designed to inspire innovation and improvement of manufacture industry, such as the establishment of Institute of Manufacturing Innovation in the United States and the High Value Manufacturing Catapult in the United Kingdom. In this paper, the construction, operational management and funding source between the two kind of organizations are analyzed, and preliminary suggestions for the construction of China’s manufacturing network are put forward.

Key words: Manufacturing, Innovation, Cooperative Network Construction
