Greater Phoenix A to Z
Semiconductors — Joe Russell
From a morning cup of coffee and the commute into work to connecting with loved ones across the country over the phone or on a flight, chips quietly impact every aspect of life. Greater Phoenix is a leading market for developing this global technology, with legacy contributors like Intel and the world's largest chip producer TSMC both making multi-billion dollar investments in the region over the last five years. GPEC Vice President of International Development Sean Fogarty and Vice President of Business Development Samantha Pinkal join Greater Phoenix A to Z host Tim Bourcet for a conversation around semiconductors — a key component to chip manufacturing — and the importance of this Greater Phoenix industry. Tim is also joined by Joe Russell, Legislative Assistant for Senator Mark Kelly, discussing the CHIPS and Science Act, and how that will create growth opportunities in Greater Phoenix.
