Scope of Semiconductor Industry
Chips are found in everything from televisions and cell phones to computers and automobiles.  It is a global industry
with the majority of leading edge manufacturing fabs currently located in the United States and Japan with a bur-
geoning number of fabs in Asia.  New York State recognized the growth potential of this industry over a decade ago.
In Albany, the College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering was formed in 2004 and has become a global leader in
research and development for the semiconductor industry.  Across New York State, more than $14 billion in public and
private funds have been invested on high tech research and development in the last 10 years.  As the semiconductor
industry moves to a new technology platform, New York State is well positioned to capitalize on its investment.

       Site Advantages
       In the late 1990’s New York State conducted a statewide search for locations which met the criteria for semiconductor
       manufacturing. The Marcy Nanocenter at SUNYIT location has the following site specific advantages.

Nanotechnology: Forging Partnerships and Transforming the Mohawk Valley - Nanocenter at SUNYIT
A rendering of development of the site

                        Marcy Nanocenter at SUNYIT is a 420+ acre greenfield site on the campus of SUNYIT.
                   It is among the largest shovel-ready site in New York State’s Tech Valley. With EDGE leading
                    the site development and marketing, it competes on a global scale to recruit this industry.

Tax Sharing Agreement Structure
PILOT Increment Financing (PIF)

Tax Sharing Structure
Project development associated with the semiconductor industry frequently presents
obstacles requiring unique solutions to make projects financially feasible. One innovative
way to offset the added costs of challenging development projects is through the use
of “PILOT Increment Financing” or a PIF.

A PIF allows local government to allocate PILOT proceeds with a predetermined share
for the taxing entities, and the balance dedicated for project improvements and regional
initiatives.

The tax sharing agreement for Marcy Nanocenter at SUNYIT establishes how these                       Key PIF Stakeholders
unique facilities will be assessed and taxed via a PILOT agreement.  It allocates a portion
