Mass Wins Microelectronics Hub
The Healey-Driscoll Administration announced last week that Massachusetts has been awarded $19.7 million in funding for fiscal year 2023 through the federal CHIPS and Science Act to establish the Northeast Microelectronics Coalition Hub (NEMC), a regional hub that will advance the microelectronics needs of the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) while spurring new jobs, workforce training opportunities, and investment in the region’s advanced manufacturing and technology sectors. The Healey-Driscoll Administration is supporting the hub with up to $40 million in matching funds from the Immediate Needs Bond Bill filed in January. The Administration, through the quasi-public economic development agency Massachusetts Technology Collaborative, assembled and led a coalition of more than 90 organizations from across the Northeast in submitting a proposal in February to the federal government to create the NEMC through the DoD’s Microelectronics Commons program. Ironically, the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative was founded in 1982 as the Massachusetts Technology Park Corporation and funded by the legislature to advance the growth of the microelectronic technology sector of the state’s economy at the time. It’s successes, if any, were a well-kept secret. But it didn’t go out of business. Instead, in 1994, it changed its name and mission to the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative.
