Scale-Up Manufacturing Investment Company Act of 2025

# Scale-Up Manufacturing Investment Company Act of 2025 - Summary **What the Bill Would Do:** This bill would establish a new type of investment company designed to help growing manufacturing businesses access capital and financing. The legislation would create a framework allowing these "Scale-Up Manufacturing Investment Companies" to invest in and support mid-sized manufacturing firms that are expanding operations but may struggle to get traditional bank loans or venture capital funding. **Who It Affects:** The bill primarily targets manufacturing companies in the growth stage—those too established for startup funding but not yet large enough for conventional corporate financing. It would also affect investors who want to put money into manufacturing businesses and may benefit from the new investment vehicle structure created by this legislation. **Current Status:** The bill is currently in committee, meaning it has been introduced but not yet voted on by the full Senate.

It was sponsored by Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) in the 119th Congress. At this stage, the bill is being reviewed and debated in the relevant committee before it could move forward for a broader vote. *Note: Specific details about key provisions are not available from the information provided.*.
