With the goal of positioning the country as a key link in the technology supply chain, the Ministry of Industry, Commerce and MSMEs (MICM) formalized a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Arizona Commerce Authority (ACA). This alliance seeks to boost the development of technical capabilities and attract investment in the semiconductor sector, leveraging Dominican logistical infrastructure and human capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The agreement was signed in Phoenix by Minister Yayo Sanz Lovat\u00f3n and Sandra Watson, President and CEO of the ACA. The initiative is part of the National Strategy for the Promotion of the Semiconductor Industry (ENFIS), which aims to turn the Dominican Republic into a strategic partner for high-tech manufacturing for the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nDominican talent is our main advantage for integrating into this industry. This alliance connects the Government, the private sector, and our educational institutions to develop the capabilities demanded by the market, generate specialized jobs, and attract new investments.<\/p>\nYayo Sanz Lovat\u00f3n, Minister of Industry, Commerce and MSMEs.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Growth opportunities and specialized training<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The agreement not only focuses on trade, but prioritizes the creation of an educational and professional ecosystem. Among the fundamental pillars are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Talent mobility:<\/strong> Technical and academic training programs between institutions in Arizona and the Dominican Republic.<\/li>
- Supply chain resilience:<\/strong> Initiatives to expand trade and foster partnerships between companies in both territories.<\/li>
- Technology transfer:<\/strong> Visits to advanced research centers such as Arizona State University’s MacroTechnology Works for knowledge exchange in quantum technology and materials.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
A competitive and stable ecosystem<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
For her part, Sandra Watson highlighted that the Dominican Republic offers democratic stability and a business climate that make it the natural extension for U.S. manufacturing. The executive underscored that the logistical agility and the strength of the local free trade zones are differentiating elements for companies operating under the CHIPS Act.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Dominican delegation, composed of prominent representatives from the academic and business sectors, explored various areas of collaboration during the mission, including semiconductor assembly, testing, and packaging, as well as the manufacturing of electronic components. With this signing, the country reaffirms its commitment to becoming an essential hub in the global technology industry, capitalizing on its experience in advanced manufacturing and its growing platform of free trade zones.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
