Opinion Piece Shares Accolades on Wins for CNY Semiconductor Industry

The Advance Media New York Editorial Board published an opinion article highlighting the recent federal Tech Hub award for the NY SMART I-Corridor and the ongoing investments that will make the region a premiere location for semiconductor manufacturing in the US. The NY SMART I-Corridor is the only consortium focused on the semiconductor industry to receive a federal Tech Hub award. 

"The consortium’s leaders — CenterState CEO in Syracuse, the Buffalo Niagara Partnership in Buffalo and ROC2025 in Rochester — also have been intentional in their planning. They are targeting underserved communities for investment and underserved populations for recruitment, education and training," the Editorial Board said. "Whether you’re a company looking to break into the Micron supply chain, a worker looking for a better job or a child contemplating the future, there is something here for you. It is early days, but not too early to say: That sound you hear is opportunity knocking. Get ready to answer the door."
