7-Pillar Strategy
Our objective is to position Sonora as a resilient, cost-effective, and globally connected hub for Assembly, Testing & Packaging (ATP) in the semiconductor supply chain — supported by reliable energy, skilled talent, water security, and binational coordination with Arizona.
Pillar 1: Ecosystem Coordination and Governance
Establish structured, multisector coordination to align vision, capabilities, and investment around Sonora’s ATP strategy — in strong alignment with Arizona’s semiconductor ecosystem.
Pillar 2: Workforce, Talent & Academic Alignment
Build a practical, industry-aligned ATP talent pipeline focused on technician training, dual education models, and clear career pathways.
Pillar 3: Global Positioning and Industry Engagement
Raise Sonora’s visibility and credibility in global semiconductor networks — through branding, outreach, anchor firm engagement, and international promotion.
Pillar 4: Supply Chain Integration & Local Supplier Development
Build a resilient, high-quality supplier base in Sonora that supports ATP operations and aligns with global value chain risk-reduction priorities.
Pillar 5: Infrastructure Enablement
Build high-quality, cleanroom-compatible infrastructure to support ATP investment, training, supplier integration, and early-stage production — with a focus on speed, shared use, and reliability.
Pillar 6: Policy Certainty, Workforce Mobility & Investor De-risking
Deliver a transparent, stable, and investor-friendly policy framework — including workforce mobility — to reduce execution risk and accelerate ATP investment decisions.
Pillar 7: Applied Research & Innovation Capacity
Build regional capacity for applied innovation in ATP technologies through shared infrastructure, industry collaboration, and commercialization support — to strengthen Sonora’s long-term position in global semiconductor supply chains.
