Manufacturing & Jobs: Cannondale plans to close its Connecticut headquarters by mid-2027, laying off 143 workers. BIC, meanwhile, will move its North American headquarters from Shelton to Norwalk. Infrastructure: New Britain secured $6.9 million for stormwater, sewer, water-line and road upgrades near flood-prone Allen Street; construction is expected to start early next year. Energy: New England’s nuclear plants, including Millstone, supply about a quarter of the region’s electricity as demand grows. But federal efforts to reopen permits for offshore wind projects—including Revolution Wind, already generating power off Connecticut and Rhode Island—raise uncertainty for the region’s clean-energy buildout.

Research on technical high schools also points to stronger early-career earnings for Connecticut graduates, underscoring the value of employer-linked training.
