Around 400 communities applied to the federal Tech Hubs program, a program designed to support tech-based economies in underinvested areas. Of those, only 12 received a Tech Hub designation and federal dollars to support and implement their strategies.
The NY SMART I-Corridor, a coalition of partners from Syracuse, Rochester, Buffalo and Ithaca, is one of those 12 Tech Hubs. And it’s the only designated Tech Hub in the US focused on the semiconductor industry. That means 40 million dollars from the federal government and 8 million dollars from the state are coming to upstate New York to support the growth of a world-class semiconductor industry hub right here.
Building this successful application was no small task.
On this episode of Talk CNY, presented by NBT Bank, we speak to three people who helped to lead the process: CenterState CEO’s Chief of Staff and Senior Vice President of Strategy, Policy and Planning Ben Sio, OneROC’s President and CEO Joe Stefko and Buffalo Niagara Partnership’s President and CEO Dottie Gallagher. They join the show to discuss how the NY SMART I-Corridor came to be and the significance it holds for the regions involved.
