Kansas Semiconductor Manufacturing Consortium

The Kansas Semiconductor Manufacturing Consortium (KSMC) is an emerging rural regional semiconductor manufacturing cluster recently formed as a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) between local government, higher education, and semiconductor component manufacturing partners. The formation of this entity creates the co-location of like-minded partners in a contiguous geographic area providing component manufacturing facilities, suppliers, and workforce development programs that share critical infrastructure, like equipment, space, and talent in ways that maximize efficiency.
