WE WANT TO TRIPLE DOWN.

00:01:21.448 --> 00:01:24.384
PART OF GOING TO TAIWAN WILL BE

00:01:24.451 --> 00:01:26.719

INVESTMENT, TOO, THEY TALK ABOUT

00:02:04.891 --> 00:02:08.361
THE POTENTIAL.

00:02:08.428 --> 00:02:08.728
>> RIGHT.

00:02:08.795 --> 00:02:09.929
>> FOR MASSIVE INVESTMENT.

00:02:09.996 --> 00:02:10.830

NOT JUST THEIR DESIGN SHOP, BUT

00:02:13.166 --> 00:02:14.567
OTHERS COMING AROUND.

00:02:14.634 --> 00:02:16.202
THAT'S THAT ECOSYSTEM THAT COMES

00:02:16.269 --> 00:02:18.071
UP AND THE TALENT CLUSTER THAT

00:02:18.137 --> 00:02:20.240
REALLY FORMS UP AND THAT'S HOW

00:02:20.306 --> 00:02:21.608
YOU ELEVATE NOT JUST A COMMUNITY

00:02:21.674 --> 00:02:22.876
OR A STATE, BUT THE WHOLE

00:02:22.942 --> 00:02:23.743
INDUSTRY AS A WHOLE.

00:02:23.810 --> 00:02:27.080
AND THOSE JOBS, THOSE ARE VERY

00:02:27.146 --> 00:02:29.349
HIGH HIGH-WAGE JOBS.

00:02:29.415 --> 00:02:39.192
WE'RE REALLY BULLISH ON NOT JUST

00:02:39.259 --> 00:02:41.127
TIPPACANOE COUNTY, BUT EVERYONE

00:02:41.194 --> 00:02:42.495
IN THE STATE OF INDIANA CAN HAVE

00:02:42.562 --> 00:02:44.130
A ROLE IN THIS, IN ADDITION TO

00:02:44.197 --> 00:02:45.131
THE ENGINEERING SCHOOLS AROUND

00:02:45.198 --> 00:02:46.900
US THAT WILL BE COMING TO HELP

00:02:46.966 --> 00:02:48.101
ON THIS FRONT.

00:02:48.167 --> 00:02:49.736
>> PURDUE WILL HAVE FOLKS

00:02:49.802 --> 00:02:51.604
INCLUDING THE INCOMING PRESIDENT

00:02:51.671 --> 00:02:52.338
ON THAT TRIP.

00:02:52.405 --> 00:02:54.674
HE'LL BE GOING TO THE SOUTH

00:02:54.741 --> 00:02:57.443
KOREAN PORTION OF THAT.

00:02:57.510 --> 00:02:58.044
>> RIGHT.

00:02:58.111 --> 00:02:59.946
>> DO YOU THINK INDIANA CAN

00:03:00.013 --> 00:03:09.789
BECOME A CENTER, A HUB FOR THIS

00:03:09.856 --> 00:03:10.590
MICROELECTRONICS RESEARCH?

00:03:10.657 --> 00:03:12.191
>> I THINK IT DOES AND I THINK

00:03:12.258 --> 00:03:12.725
IT CAN.

00:03:12.792 --> 00:03:13.860
WE'RE ON THAT PATH RIGHT NOW.

00:03:13.927 --> 00:03:14.861
WE HAVE ALL THE ASSETS.

00:03:14.928 --> 00:03:16.362
WE HAVE THE LOCATION, THE

00:03:16.429 --> 00:03:16.629
LOGISTICS.

00:03:16.696 --> 00:03:22.969
WE HAVE THE ACADEMIC PROWESS

00:03:23.036 --> 00:03:25.905
WITH PURDUE AND NOTRE DAME AND

00:03:25.972 --> 00:03:26.773
INDIANA, ET CETERA.

00:03:26.839 --> 00:03:28.841
WE HAVE THE CAPABILITY TO

00:03:28.908 --> 00:03:30.109
ATTRACT THE TYPE OF TALENT

00:03:30.176 --> 00:03:32.078
THAT'S NEEDED IN THIS SPACE AND

00:03:32.145 --> 00:03:33.813
SO WHEN YOU PUT ALL THOSE

00:03:33.880 --> 00:03:35.915
FACTORS TOGETHER WITH THE

00:03:35.982 --> 00:03:36.616
CURRICULUM, WITH THE TASK FORCE

00:03:36.683 --> 00:03:41.054
THAT WE HAVE IN PLACE, BEING

00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:45.758
STATE TO DO BUSINESS, PERFECT

00:03:45.825 --> 00:03:46.793
REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT,

00:03:46.859 --> 00:03:48.161
COMPANIES THAT WE'RE TALKING

00:03:48.227 --> 00:03:49.395
WITH ARE QUICK TO LEARN THAT

00:03:49.462 --> 00:03:51.564
THEY CAN GROW FASTER IN INDIANA.

00:03:51.631 --> 00:03:53.099
SO, BEING IN KIND OF THE MIDDLE

00:03:53.166 --> 00:03:55.935
OF IT ALL IN THE COUNTRY, THE

00:03:56.002 --> 00:03:57.804
HEARTLAND, WE CAN BECOME THAT

00:03:57.870 --> 00:03:58.271
HUB.

00:03:58.338 --> 00:03:59.906
>> TAIWAN IS GOING TO GET A LOT

00:03:59.973 --> 00:04:01.107
OF ATTENTION ON THIS TRIP.

00:04:01.174 --> 00:04:05.478
BUT THE TRIP TO SOUTH KOREA, AS

00:04:05.545 --> 00:04:08.481
WELL, IN PARTICULAR FOR

00:04:08.548 --> 00:04:10.149
ELECTRONIC VEHICLE BATTERIES.

00:04:10.216 --> 00:04:12.118
WE SAW OTHERS EYEING INDIANA, AS

00:04:12.185 --> 00:04:12.418
WELL.

00:04:12.485 --> 00:04:15.722
HOW IMPORTANT IS THAT PART OF

00:04:15.788 --> 00:04:17.423
THE TRIP GOING TO BE.

00:04:17.490 --> 00:04:18.558
>> BOTH EQUALLY IMPORTANT

00:04:18.625 --> 00:04:19.726
BECAUSE THEY BOTH REPRESENT

00:04:19.792 --> 00:04:23.563
GOALS OF OURS TO BE A LEADER IN

00:04:23.630 --> 00:04:24.664
THE FUTURE ECONOMY.

00:04:24.731 --> 00:04:26.566
NOT JUST FOR ECONOMIC REASONS,

00:04:26.633 --> 00:04:28.468
BUT ALSO NATIONAL SECURITY

00:04:28.534 --> 00:04:30.470
REASONS FOR US AND OUR ALLIES.

00:04:30.536 --> 00:04:33.339
TO BE ABLE TO PUT THESE PIECES

00:04:33.406 --> 00:04:34.941
TOGETHER AND GO AFTER THE EV

00:04:35.008 --> 00:04:36.676
TECHNOLOGY, TO GO AFTER BATTERY

00:04:36.743 --> 00:04:39.646
TECHNOLOGY, TO GO AFTER CHIPS,

00:04:39.712 --> 00:04:40.647
SEMICONDUCTOR TECHNOLOGY, FROM

00:04:40.713 --> 00:04:43.049
DESIGN TO PRODUCTION, TO BE ABLE

00:04:43.116 --> 00:04:44.984
TO DO IT ALL IN ONE AREA, THIS

00:04:45.051 --> 00:04:47.620
IS A HUGE ADVANTAGE AND

00:04:47.687 --> 00:04:49.155
OBVIOUSLY MANUFACTURING IS IN

00:04:49.222 --> 00:04:49.856
OUR DNA.

00:04:49.922 --> 00:04:51.491
SO, THAT'S VERY ATTRACTIVE FOR

00:04:51.557 --> 00:04:53.326
THESE COMPANIES THAT THINK ALL

00:04:53.393 --> 00:04:55.395
WE HAVE TO DO IS GET ANOTHER

00:04:55.461 --> 00:04:57.630
CREDENTIAL OR CERTIFICATE FOR AN

00:04:57.697 --> 00:04:59.399
EMPLOYEE AND THEY'RE ALREADY

00:04:59.465 --> 00:04:59.832
CLOSE.

00:04:59.899 --> 00:05:01.901
SO, RE-SKILLING SOMETHING THAT

00:05:01.968 --> 00:05:03.369
WE KNOW A LOT ABOUT AND HAVE

00:05:03.436 --> 00:05:06.072
PROGRAMS TO DO, THIS IS KIND OF

00:05:06.139 --> 00:05:07.840
ALMOST A MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN

00:05:07.907 --> 00:05:09.175
FOR THESE KINDS OF COMPANIES

00:05:09.242 --> 00:05:10.810
THAT WANT AND NEED TO GROW FOR

00:05:10.877 --> 00:05:11.344
SUPPLY CHAIN.

00:05:11.411 --> 00:05:13.112
IT'S NO LONGER JUST IN TIME.

00:05:13.179 --> 00:05:15.048
IT'S JUST IN CASE TO BE ABLE TO

00:05:15.114 --> 00:05:16.816
ADAPT TO THE FACTS ON THE GROUND

00:05:16.883 --> 00:05:18.951
AS THEY ARE NO MATTER WHERE YOU

00:05:19.018 --> 00:05:21.187
ARE IN THE WORLD.

00:05:21.254 --> 00:05:22.388
>> TYPICALLY MISSIONS LIKE THIS,

00:05:22.455 --> 00:05:25.158
IT'S MORE OF A LONG-TERM TYPE OF

00:05:25.224 --> 00:05:26.092
DEAL, RELATIONSHIP BUILDING,

00:05:26.159 --> 00:05:26.826
THOSE TYPES OF THINGS.

00:05:26.893 --> 00:05:27.894
I'M SURE THAT'S PART OF. THIS

00:05:27.960 --> 00:05:29.829
BUT IS THERE ALSO A SENSE OF

00:05:29.896 --> 00:05:33.132
URGENCY IN THIS BECAUSE

00:05:33.199 --> 00:05:34.000
MICROELECTRONICS, THE CHIPS VERY

00:05:34.067 --> 00:05:34.901
HOT INDUSTRY RIGHT NOW.

00:05:34.967 --> 00:05:36.269
A LOT OF INVESTMENT BEING MADE.

00:05:36.335 --> 00:05:38.671
IS THERE A SENSE OF URGENCY TO

00:05:38.738 --> 00:05:40.273
GET OVER THERE AND TRY TO GET

00:05:40.339 --> 00:05:41.174
SOME DEALS.

00:05:41.240 --> 00:05:41.541
>> ABSOLUTELY.

00:05:41.607 --> 00:05:42.675
THEY ALL COMPLEMENT ONE ANOTHER

00:05:42.742 --> 00:05:44.243
OR ARE DEPENDENT ON THE OTHER.

00:05:44.310 --> 00:05:46.179
YOU THINK ABOUT HOW MANY CHIPS

00:05:46.245 --> 00:05:48.848
WERE IN AN AUTOMOBILE TEN YEARS

00:05:48.915 --> 00:05:50.583
AGO, AND HOW MANY WILL BE IN

00:05:50.650 --> 00:05:51.884
THAT AUTOMOBILE TEN YEARS FROM

00:05:51.951 --> 00:05:54.087
NOW, WE GOT A LONG WAY TO GO.

00:05:54.153 --> 00:05:55.555
AND WE IN AMERICA HAVE GIVEN UP

00:05:55.621 --> 00:05:58.224
TOO MUCH OF THE TERRAIN IN THE

00:05:58.291 --> 00:05:58.424
PAST.

00:05:58.491 --> 00:06:00.660
SO, NOW WE'RE SEEKING TO, AND

00:06:00.727 --> 00:06:04.263
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS,

00:06:04.330 --> 00:06:09.402
SECRETARY ROMANDO, AS YOU

00:06:09.469 --> 00:06:10.136
RECALL, HAS REALLY LEANED INTO

00:06:10.203 --> 00:06:11.404
THIS SPACE.

00:06:11.471 --> 00:06:13.639
AND SENATOR TODD YOUNG WAS A

00:06:13.706 --> 00:06:15.742
HUGE SUPPORTER OF THE CHIPS ACT

00:06:15.808 --> 00:06:16.976
THAT ULTIMATELY PASSED.

00:06:17.043 --> 00:06:19.045
THOSE ARE ALSO GOING TO BE KEY

00:06:19.112 --> 00:06:20.079
FACTORS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF

00:06:20.146 --> 00:06:21.781
OUR COUNTRY AND INDIANA, WE

00:06:21.848 --> 00:06:22.682
ALMOST FEEL LIKE WE HAVE A

00:06:22.749 --> 00:06:24.183
LITTLE BIT OF A HEAD START ON

00:06:24.250 --> 00:06:25.618
THIS BECAUSE OF PURDUE AND NOTRE

00:06:25.685 --> 00:06:28.020
DAME AND THE ACADEMIC

00:06:28.087 --> 00:06:33.292
PERSPECTIVES ALREADY IN THE

00:06:33.359 --> 00:06:33.593
DISCUSSION.

00:06:33.659 --> 00:06:34.660
>> INDIANA GOVERNOR ERIC HOLCOMB
