更大的萨克拉门托 Area offers talent pipeline and support for innovation

Sacramento (Rancho Cordova), 十大网投官方入口, 2月. 7, 2023—Solidigm是一家美国公司.S.-based leading global provider of innovative NAND flash memory solutions, has named the City of Rancho Cordova in 更大的萨克拉门托 the company’s new global headquarters.

的 decision was made due to 更大的萨克拉门托’s access to skilled talent, 生活质量, and support for technology businesses. 的 state capital region is ranked 7^th in the country among large metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) for higher education talent with more than 700,000 students enrolled in higher learning institutions within 100 miles.

“的 Sacramento region has a competitive talent pool, support for innovation, and offers a lifestyle highly valued by our team members, making Rancho Cordova the optimal headquarters for Solidigm,” said Chief Operating Officer Ellen Doller. “的 support we received in selecting the site for our global R&D facility made the decision easy. We look forward to continuing to be a part of this vibrant community through job creation, 合作伙伴关系, 和志愿服务.”

Solidigm is a leading global provider of innovative NAND flash memory solutions. 的 company launched as a U.S.-based subsidiary of SK hynix, Inc., the world’s second-largest memory chip maker, on December 29, 2021, following an October 2020 agreement by SK hynix to acquire Intel’s NAND and SSD business for $9 billion.

In September 2022, after an exhaustive site search in the 更大的萨克拉门托 region, Solidigm announced its choice of Rancho Cordova for its global research and development (R&D) hub, with more than $100 million investment in the facility. That project is the largest semiconductor industry R&D project 更大的萨克拉门托 has seen over the last decade and is now followed by the company’s decision to make the same location its global headquarters.

“去年秋天, we were thrilled to announce that Solidigm’s global research and development facility would be headquartered in Rancho Cordova, and we are equally thrilled to welcome Solidigm’s global headquarters to the city,” said Mayor Linda Budge. “Solidigm is a cutting-edge leader in the semiconductor space, and locating their global headquarters here is an economic game-changer for Rancho Cordova and the Sacramento region.”

Solidigm is currently 工作ing on tenant improvements to the 230,000-square-foot R&D campus and is targeting a move-in date in the first quarter of 2023. 的 site was chosen for its ability to combine world-class lab and office space into a single campus, proximity to where Solidigm’s 工作force lives, availability of public transportation, and nearby amenities.

“We are thrilled Solidigm decided to make their HQ location in Rancho Cordova,” GSEC President & CEO Barry Broome said. “This validates the state capital market as being one of the top locations in the country for semiconductor talent. We also want to commend the City of Rancho Cordova for its leadership and for making the process business-friendly with ample real estate available. Solidigm made the best choice because the City delivers a great experience and treats industry like their customers.”

“We are pleased to see continued investment in Rancho Cordova from Solidigm and are honored they selected the city as their global headquarters,” said Congressman Ami Bera. “的 overall investment means a significant amount to our community as Solidigm plans to invest in more high-wage jobs to grow their presence in the region. I am proud that Sacramento will continue to be the home of several great semiconductor companies. Combined with the robust funding from Congress through the bipartisan passage of the CHIPS and Science Act and the great engineering talent from our local universities and colleges, I look forward to 工作ing with Solidigm and other industry partners to ensure that this investment will continue to bring considerable opportunities that will benefit the 更大的萨克拉门托 region and its residents. As a co-chair of the Congressional Korea Caucus, I am excited about Solidigm’s investment in our region as I have 工作ed to grow economic ties between the U.S. and Korea and this investment is another example of the great potential of our countries’ partnership.”

“I want to congratulate Solidigm on this crucial investment for the Sacramento region’s economy as I continue my 工作 at the federal level to support the semiconductor industry,” said Congresswoman Doris Matsui. “两年前, I introduced the CHIPS Act to address an urgent economic and national security threat – America’s decline in the strategically important semiconductor industry. I will continue 工作ing hard as Ranking Member of the Energy and Commerce Committee’s 通信 and 科技nology Subcommittee to move policy forward that builds on our progress in the semiconductor industry and invests in our innovators like Solidigm.”
