Annual Meeting 2026 Manish Crowd

Micron Technology Executive Vice President of Global Operations Manish Bhatia delivered remarks at CenterState CEO's 2026 Annual Meeting on April 22. In his remarks, Bhatia shared how Micron is approaching its Central New York investment not as a single facility but as a fully integrated manufacturing ecosystem. That approach aligns infrastructure and workforce development to support sustained growth and global competitiveness. In its coverage of the event, Syracuse.com noted that he also told the crowd of more than 800 people that the project is currently ahead of schedule:

"[Bhatia] told 800 people at the CenterState CEO annual meeting the company expects to be pouring concrete by the end of the year for the first of four fabrication facilities.

'We broke ground just a few months ago in Clay on a project that we know will transform this region and will transform Micron,' he told the audience at the Oncenter."
