Trump, Tariffs and the Battle for Blue-Collar America – Financial Times

Bloom’s co-founders Chris Nolte and Justin Kosmides were featured in a film by FT columnist Patti Waldmeir exploring the resurgence of American manufacturing. Set in Detroit and filmed at Newlab, the film investigates whether tariffs and reshoring can deliver high-tech jobs and rebuild the middle class. As the film’s narrator puts it: “Justin and Chris now match-make other companies with suppliers, manufacturers, and distributors, all based in the US. It’s all about hardware, from e-bikes to drones, robots to telescopes.”
