Silicon Heartland
The Silicon Heartlands goal is to bring semiconductor companies together as a group to strengthen the industry in the United States. By doing this it will improve national security, boost economic growth, promote innovation, protect intellectual property, and create sustainable and socially responsible manufacturing practices. Forming a technology cluster will lead to synergies that would not be possible if these companies operate independently. Bridging the highest level of research and development with the most advanced semiconductor manufacturing and design will create efficiency for new innovations.
Silicon Heartland intends to connect private investors, our federal government, state, local communities and American workers with leading universities, think-tanks, NGOs and of course, the leading technology companies of America. Bringing the diversification of ecosystems together as a consortium into America’s heartland to ensure our economic and strategic security and resiliency of critical electronics supply chain.
About us
Silicon Heartland directly advances U.S. national security interest. Nearly all the members of our cluster are American focused, have an established track-record of obtaining and fulfilling U.S. Defense Department contracts and grants who are united with us in our cause to build an advanced innovative semiconductor ecosystem within U.S. soil, our Heartland. The experience, relationships, credentials, background and their U.S. defense-related products and services significantly contributes to American national security. United in our cluster, Silicon Heartland aims to create a domestic semiconductor supply chain (through the strengths, background, resources and diversity of our Cluster Participants) that will be resilient in the face of supply shocks reverberating overseas, especially from countries of concern.
