In case you missed it, Arizona broke Silicon Valley’s “monopoly” over SEMICON West, and will host the premier microelectronics exhibition in 2025. Moving forward, the conference will be hosted in Phoenix on a rotating basis. The news comes as Maricopa County was named the best county in the US for company expansions, private investment, and jobs created.
“It has never been more clear that Arizona is the choice to build the economy of the future,” said Governor Katie Hobbs. “With a strong and ever growing workforce, dynamic business ecosystem, and unparalleled quality of life, Arizona continues to emerge as the leader in the semiconductor industry and has beat out competitors like California and Texas in creating high-quality jobs for Arizonans in this growing industry. We are thrilled to host next year’s SEMICON West conference, and I look forward to building on the success of this premier event for years to come.”
Phoenix is set to become a tech powerhouse in 2025 with the arrival of SEMICON West, the premier microelectronics exhibition in North America. The first show, at the Phoenix Convention Center, is October 7-9, 2025, then it returns in 2027 and 2029.
