Could businesses like Fijufilm Electronic Materials U.S.A., Inc., above, which broke ground in March for a major expansion of its manufacturing and development facility on South Mountain Road in Mesa, be in the cards for Pinal County? (City of Mesa)
When one thinks of the term “tech corridor” the first thought to come to their mind is Silicon Valley.
But Pinal County Economic Development Program Manager Tim Kanavel says that Silicon Valley is not the only tech corridor in the U.S.
“There are several tech corridors across the nation,” Mr. Kanavel said. “There is a very successful one in Northern Virginia called the Dulles Technology Corridor and another one in Florida. It’s not a concept exclusively for California.”
