Manufacturing Week in Fremont, California, is an annual city-led event—coordinated alongside National Manufacturing Day—that connects K-12, college, and university students with local high-tech and industrial manufacturers through guided facility tours, presentations, and hands-on showcases. Fremont has the most manufacturing jobs of any city in California, featuring over 900 manufacturers across cutting-edge sectors like clean energy, semiconductors, robotics, AI, automotive tech, and biotechnology (such as Tesla and Bloom Energy). Manufacturing accounts for roughly 35% of all jobs in Fremont, providing thousands of stable, high-paying careers that support local families and municipal revenue.
