Saras Micro Devices celebrates opening of new headquarters
Saras Micro Devices has officially inaugurated its new headquarters and manufacturing facility in Chandler, Arizona.
The establishment of this new production centre in Arizona reflects Saras’ strategic commitment to nurturing its growth in the high-performance computing (HPC), artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning (ML) domains. This move is also a response to the rapidly growing semiconductor ecosystem in the region. While the company is transitioning its headquarters from Atlanta, Georgia, its Research & Development Centre will continue to operate there.
“This move is not just a change in geographic location; it is an intentional strategic decision to align our vision with our customers in driving the US semiconductor industry forward,” said Ron Huemoeller, CEO of Saras Micro Devices. “We are grateful for the partnership with the City of Chandler, the Greater Phoenix Economic Council, and the Arizona Commerce Authority, as their support has been instrumental in our successful relocation. This move supports our mission to become an integral part of Arizona’s burgeoning technology ecosystem and our desire to contribute to the strength of the United States’ domestic semiconductor industry. This is where our future becomes a reality, and we’re just getting started.”
The Chandler facility, situated at 3200 W. Germann Road, represents an investment of over $50 million. Initially, the site features 33,000 sq. ft. of clean room, manufacturing, and administrative space. In the short term, Saras plans to hire around 50 employees, primarily engineering professionals. By the end of 2025, the company anticipates significant expansion, with the facility growing to 43,000 sq. ft., including an enlarged 13,000 sq. ft. clean room.
Saras’ new headquarters is strategically located near key partners in the semiconductor ecosystem. Arizona's conducive business environment and commitment to talent development position Saras uniquely to leverage these advantages while contributing significantly to a robust US semiconductor industry.
“The City of Chandler is thrilled to further expand our semiconductor supply chain industry and bring another technology headquarters to our community with the addition of Saras Micro Devices,” stated Chandler Mayor Kevin Hartke. “We continue to make the shortlist for these coveted projects due to our central location, top-notch educational system, and pro-business climate. Saras has been a great partner to work with during this process, and we look forward to growing our relationship with them over the years to come.”
“This HQ relocation allows Saras Micro Devices to address present needs of the market while strengthening its ability to develop technology for the future,” said Greater Phoenix Economic Council President & CEO Chris Camacho. “Saras’ innovation in integrated power delivery for semiconductor devices using AI and ML will boost the region’s semiconductor cluster and technological competitiveness.”
“We are excited Saras Micro Devices has selected Arizona for its new headquarters,” said Sandra Watson, President, and CEO of the Arizona Commerce Authority. “The Chandler manufacturing facility will enable Saras to continue advancing semiconductor innovation, further showcasing Arizona’s attractiveness as the premier destination for advanced semiconductor operations and contributing to our thriving technology ecosystem. We look forward to supporting their future success in Chandler.”
