ROCHESTER - During a recent Seacoast Manufacturing Exchange in Rochester Gov. Kelly Ayotte said that by attracting new businesses, investing in workforce development, and preserving New Hampshire's business-friendly regulatory environment, the state will continue to thrive and lead the way in tech and other industries.

"Our Seacoast is a hub for advanced manufacturing and technology thanks to the innovative leaders and strong partnerships with communities like Rochester," said Ayotte. "I thank the Rochester Economic Development Commission for bringing stakeholders and leaders together at the Seacoast Manufacturing Exchange to discuss how we can keep growing these jobs in our state."

The forum was hosted by the Rochester Economic Development Commission and was attended by more than 75 leaders of industry in the Seacoast.

Last month's meeting was held at Laars Heating Systems in Rochester.
