Tuesday, Maricopa County is showing President Biden a new semiconductor plant there but Pima County has its own aggressive efforts to bring tech employers here.
Raytheon is a tech giant that has been growing here for decades but many other companies involved with electronics, aerospace and medical technology have decided Southern Arizona is a great place to build their businesses.
Heath Vescovi-Chiordi, Pima County’s Economic Development Director says building essential systems like roads, water, wastewater and data connections helps attract businesses, and so does the county’s ability to make land available. A workforce ready to handle technical tasks is another powerful draw. That’s where Pima Community College and Pima JTED come in.
“We learned how to program robots, electrical currents, machining, so like we have our welding. We also learned how to use tools correctly, so we know how to do rivets. We also got OSHA certified so we know how to be safe in the workspace,” Chanes said.
