Chuck Schumer Announces Opening of National Semiconductor Technology Center in Albany

Published | Video Starts at 12:45

I want to thank our industry partners that made Albany Nanotech a global leader. From IBM, GlobalFoundries, Micron, Wolfspeed, ASML, Applied Materials, Tokyo Electronics, Electron and so much more. And again, I can tell you, when I was trying to lure Micron to Syracuse, one of the best selling points was that we were going to get the NSTC here. They wanted to be near the center for Research. That's also true of Wolfspeed. Tom had the good sense to locate here in the capital region before all this, but it's going to help him grow and expand. (12:45–12:53)

CLAIM

Asserts that securing the NSTC was a key selling point in attracting Micron to Syracuse.
