At Graceland during #ACEMemphis, the U.S. Mission highlighted Memphis as a powerful #Freedom250 lens—where the story of America can be traced along the Mississippi River, heard in music, and seen in the city’s continued role as a center of tourism, exchange, and opportunity across the Americas.

The ACA and local partners hosted a delegation from Taiwan for a full day of economic and industry engagement — including semiconductor briefings, a multi‑sector roundtable, and tour of @ASU Polytechnic’s capabilities. Special thanks to Aeon Corp and @SRP @APS @MCC @GPEC!

[Arizona-Mexico Commission @AzMxCom]

Governor Hobbs and the Arizona Delegation kick off Day 1 with a roundtable discussion at the @USChamber. As USMCA negotiations begin with Canada and Mexico, we showcased Arizona’s position as a stronghold for American trade, commerce, and national security.

Honored to welcome our partners from Kaohsiung, Taiwan, and Kumamoto, Japan, to strengthen collaboration across high‑tech sectors. With advanced TSMC operations in all three, Arizona, Kaohsiung, and Kumamoto share a unique bond centered on innovation and supply‑chain resiliency.

Hoy, nuestra Cónsul General Michelle Ward encabezó una delegación de alto nivel junto a Salina Rico, Oficial de Asuntos Fronterizos de @StateDept (WHA/MEX), y Osmahn Kadri, Gerente de Activos y de NEPA de @GSA. La comitiva viajó desde Washington, D.C., para supervisar la modernización y expansión del Puerto de Entrada San Luis I. Durante el recorrido, fueron recibidos por el Director del Puerto de @CBPArizona, Chris Leon, y la empresa a cargo del proyecto @henselphelps, para evaluar esta obra de más de 350 millones de dólares. Una infraestructura transformadora que redefinirá la dinámica de la mega-región Sonora-Arizona. 🇺🇸🇲🇽

¿Qué significa este proyecto para nuestra comunidad?

🚗 Menos tiempos de espera: Duplicamos la capacidad de procesamiento de vehículos ligeros hacia el norte (¡de 8 a 16 carriles!).

🚨 Mayor seguridad: Implementación de tecnología de última generación para combatir el tráfico de drogas e identificar actividades de alto riesgo.

🚶‍♀️ Cruces peatonales ágiles: Incremento de 10 a 14 carriles de inspección peatonal.

🏢 Infraestructura de vanguardia: Nuevas instalaciones administrativas y de inspección comercial para fortalecer la misión de CBP.

En este año de #Freedom250, seguimos construyendo puentes de prosperidad. Modernizar nuestras fronteras no solo mejora el flujo comercial, sino que garantiza una América más segura y fuerte para todos.

A big moment for Arizona’s semiconductor future!

Congratulations to @uarizona on the ribbon-cutting of the Micro/Nano Fabrication Center in Tucson.

This new cleanroom will accelerate innovation and train the skilled workforce needed to lead in this critical industry.

[Sandra Watson @SandraWatsonAZ]

Exciting news! The @uarizona and @NYCU_official will launch a Talent & Innovation Hub. The collaboration is a powerful example of AZ's work to build a world-class semiconductor talent pipeline.

My thanks to President @SVGarimella and all our partners! https://t.co/xdDBfcr7rO
