Gov. Kathy Hochul says she has offered “a very robust incentive package” to lure a semiconductor chip manufacturer to Central New York that could employ up to 5,000 people and help transform the local economy.

The governor said she has personally engaged in negotiations with the undisclosed company that would build a multibillion-dollar chip plant at the 1,250-acre White Pine Commerce Park owned by Onondaga County.
