Not Just Space — Readiness
It’s easy to assume infrastructure is just about land and buildings. Do we have enough square meters? Are the permits in place? Can we break ground quickly?
But in semiconductors — especially in backend operations like assembly, testing, and packaging — readiness isn’t measured in acres. It’s measured in reliability.
The companies we want to attract aren’t just looking for space. They’re looking for sites that are cleanroom-compatible, grid-stable, water-secure, and future-proofed for clean energy. And that’s not something you find. It’s something you build — on purpose.
The Wrong Park Can Kill the Right Strategy
Sonora has industrial parks. But that doesn’t mean it’s ready.
Most existing parks weren’t designed with semiconductors in mind. They lack the power quality, water redundancy, or contamination controls needed to run backend operations. And retrofitting after the fact is slow, expensive, and often incomplete.
That’s why the strategy calls for something more focused: a Smart Industrial Park built — or adapted — for ATP from the start.
That means:
Uninterrupted, industrial-grade power with the ability to isolate clean zones
Reliable water access and treatment, built with long-term demand in mind
Zoning for cleanroom-ready environments
And a clear pathway to clean energy integration, not as a bonus, but as an expectation
It’s not about overbuilding. It’s about building for what’s coming.
We’re Not Breaking Ground Yet — But We Are Lining It Up
We’re starting to work with existing industrial parks to identify which ones are closest to being ATP-ready, and what gaps still need to be closed. That includes things like backup systems, cleanroom zoning, and utility delivery — but also things like fast-track permitting and on-site customs handling.
The idea isn’t to pick winners. It’s to signal what “ready” looks like, so that the ecosystem can start moving in that direction — together.
Because once anchor firms show interest, it’s too late to start planning. The infrastructure race is won before the deal is signed.
The semiconductor world doesn’t reward available space. It rewards prepared ground. And that’s the difference we’re working to create.
Are you operating or developing an industrial park in Sonora?
We’re mapping potential sites for semiconductor backend operations — and identifying what it takes to close the gap between “available” and “ready.”
