“On behalf of SUNY Polytechnic Institute, I am beyond thrilled to congratulate Senator Charles Schumer; Governor Kathy Hochul; Onondaga County Executive Ryan McMahon; Empire State Development President, CEO and Commissioner Hope Knight; and CenterState President and CEO Robert M. Simpson on their successful leadership which has made today’s Micron fab announcement possible. We are excited to join them in welcoming Micron to New York State where SUNY Poly is proud to work with our partners as we drive cutting-edge semiconductor-based research and hands on high-tech educational opportunities from the Capital Region to the Mohawk Valley and beyond, catalyzing next-generation computer chips and the critical high-tech career pipeline. We look forward to a bright future with Micron as this state’s ‘Erie Canal innovation ecosystem’ continues to expand and move New York State forward.”
