ASMI Mission

The mission of the Arizona – Sonora Manufacturing Initiative is to increase the competitiveness of our region for manufacturing and the associated innovation, R&D and other activities.  These activities add significant value to our regional economy, and are essential to its future growth.

We will accomplish this through:

  • helping companies build their strategic and organizational competencies to enhance their global competitiveness.
  • working with business, governmental, educational and NGO organizations to increase private-public collaboration to build regional infrastructure and business capabilities.
  • proactively exploring opportunities for bi-national collaboration that can foster improved understanding and mutually beneficial economic growth in the Arizona-Sonora bi-national region.

The Arizona – Sonora Bi-national Region

The Arizona-Sonora region offers companies in a range of industries — such as aerospace, defense, automotive, embedded electronics and optics — a location that has cost-competitive capabilities to support knowledge-based manufacturing, as well as the innovation and product R&D that fuel it. With an attractive cost-of-living, excellent transportation and logistics, competitive education capabilities and high quality-of-life, the region is ideal for many engineering, distribution and headquarters activities servicing North American and Latin American markets.

The Arizona-Sonora Region offers much more than manufacturing opportunity.
