It comes as city leaders continue pushing to make the West Valley a major hub for Arizona&#8217;s growing chip industry.<\/p>\n<p>The Peoria City Council approved an additional land purchase agreement earlier this month, allowing Amkor to acquire the 67 additional acres adjacent to its existing property inside the Peoria Innovation Core.<\/p>\n<p>                                            <span class=\"article__story-continues-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/p>\n<p>                                            <\/span><br \/>\n                                            <span class=\"article__story-continues-text\"><br \/>\n                                                This story continues below.<br \/>\n                                            <\/span><\/p>\n<p>The semiconductor packaging and testing company is building a $7 billion advanced manufacturing campus that city leaders say could bring as many as 3,000 high-quality jobs to the Valley. Once complete, the campus is expected to feature more than 750,000 square feet of cleanroom manufacturing space across two phases.<\/p>\n<p>According to Amkor, the facility is expected to become the first U.S.-based high-volume advanced semiconductor packaging and testing facility of its kind. The company says the campus will help prepare semiconductor chips used in products like phones, vehicles, and computers.
