Manish Bhatia, executive vice president of global operations at Micron Technology, delivered a keynote speech at CenterState CEO's 2026 Annual Meeting on May 1, 2026. He stated that Micron is "ahead of schedule" on its Central New York investment, having broken ground in Clay three months prior. Bhatia described the project as part of a "fully integrated manufacturing ecosystem" that aligns infrastructure and workforce development. He noted that Micron's New York and Idaho projects are expected to increase the share of memory built in the U.S. from less than 2% to 10% of the world's memory supply. Bhatia emphasized the importance of memory in the AI era, stating that for every AI chip shipped, 96 of Micron's high-bandwidth memory chips are used, with that number expected to rise to 144 for next-generation GPUs. He also highlighted the broader economic impact, saying that for every Micron employee on site, there will be one non-Micron employee working there daily. Bhatia said he will measure success not by production metrics but by "building a stronger community here where people can find good jobs with good homes, good education."
