Through the vision and leadership of Governor Andrew M. Cuomo, and as an integral component of the Governor’s groundbreaking ‘Nano Utica’ initiative, Quad-C Community Day is an opportunity for the public to learn more about SUNYIT’s partnership with the SUNY College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering (CNSE) on this exciting endeavor. Plan to attend this free event on Saturday, November 2 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the SUNYIT campus in Marcy.

Quad-C Community Day will include guided tours of the $125 million project’s construction site; presentations on Nano Utica, Quad-C and the Marcy Nanocenter project; and insight into the basics of nanotechnology. You’ll learn more about Governor Cuomo's $1.5 billion Nano Utica initiative, highlighted by a consortium spearheaded by CNSE and SUNYIT that includes leading technology companies such as Advanced Nanotechnology Solutions Incorporated (ANSI), SEMATECH, Atotech, and SEMATECH and CNSE partners, including IBM, Lam Research and Tokyo Electron. With an annual operating budget to exceed $500 million, the Quad-C will result in the creation of 1,500 high-tech jobs, groundbreaking academic programs, and cutting-edge workforce training opportunities.
