Foxlink Selects Phoenix for Major Expansion to Green Energy Manufacturing Footprinthttps://www.investinphoenix.com/news/33Foxlink Selects Phoenix for Major Expansion to Green Energy Manufacturing Footprint<div class="ExternalClass533CEB8FC88A435FA041A458CBA816D0"><p>PHOENIX, Ariz.— Foxlink, a global leader in electronics manufacturing, has selected Phoenix as the site for a major expansion to its green energy manufacturing footprint.</p><p>By investing approximately $20 million in wholly-owned subsidiary Foxlink Arizona, the company has created over 100 new jobs in the Phoenix area. The new jobs will allow the company to continue increasing capacity at its 168,897-square-foot facility in Phoenix, the first Foxlink manufacturing site in the United States. Adding high-value jobs in green energy will support the local economy and keep next-generation innovation in Arizona.</p><p>"During my visit to Taiwan last summer, our delegation had great discussions with Foxlink about why Phoenix is the ideal place for their continued growth. I'm excited to see them officially commit to expanding in our city," Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego said. “Phoenix is a thriving center of talent and advancement poised to support Foxlink as they create great new jobs and develop the technology that will power a greener, brighter future."</p><p>Since Foxlink Arizona began work at the Phoenix site in <a href="https://www.foxlink.com/web/en/foxlink-announced-its-plan-to-build-and-operate-a-factory-in-the-united-stated-and-expand-investment-in-green-energy-industry/"><span lang="EN">February 2022</span></a>, it has transitioned from assembling traditional circuit boards to manufacturing green energy solutions. Today, the Phoenix site produces a range of cutting-edge products, including charging stations and energy storage units. Looking ahead, the Phoenix site will also support manufacturing efforts for other US-based affiliates across the Foxlink network.</p><p>Commenting on the announcement, Freddy Kuo, Chairman of the Board, Luminys Systems Corp., and Executive Office Special Assistant at Foxlink, said, “When looking to expand our manufacturing footprint in the United States, Foxlink needed a talent-dense hub known for innovation. That is exactly what we have found in Phoenix. We are proud to be part of the local community and create new jobs in Arizona as we continue to advance the leading edge of green technology."</p><p>As a member of the Phoenix community, Foxlink Arizona is proud to participate in state and local initiatives to transition from gasoline to electric school buses, leveraging green energy to reduce carbon emissions. Working with local government, Foxlink Arizona is offering a comprehensive range of vehicle-to-grid integration solutions—including electric school buses, charging stations, and energy storage units—to help reduce carbon emissions and energy costs.      </p><p>In the weeks and months ahead, Foxlink Arizona will continue to bring additional green energy solutions to the market and expand into new areas of manufacturing to provide U.S. customers with the innovative and efficient products they need.</p><p>Beyond the investment in Arizona, Foxlink continues to expand its nationwide business investments. In May 2024, Luminys, a US subsidiary of Foxlink, completed a strategic acquisition, positioning itself to grow in the US security and smart building markets. Leveraging Foxlink's manufacturing capabilities and Luminys' distribution network, they are set to deliver comprehensive security and smart building solutions across the country.<br></p><p><br></p><p><strong>About Foxlink </strong><br></p><p>Founded in 1986, Foxlink designs, manufactures, and sells connectors, cable assemblies, power management devices, battery packs and more on an OEM/ODM basis to some of the world's leading makers of communications devices, computers and consumer electronics.

London-based MiiCare announces new headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona; rebrands to MiiHealth in the UShttps://www.investinphoenix.com/news/32London-based MiiCare announces new headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona; rebrands to MiiHealth in the US<div class="ExternalClass9D6F4DF73F2B4DD0B1751FFC2B2FBDE9"><p></p><p>PHOENIX (Aug. 28, 2024) — MiiHealth, a leading healthtech company dedicated to empowering seniors through their advanced conversational AI health coach, proudly announces the relocation of its headquarters to Phoenix, Arizona. This strategic move positions MiiHealth at the forefront of healthcare innovation in alignment with the City of Phoenix continues to be a premier hub for healthcare technology and development. The relocation underscores MiiHealth's commitment to advancing innovative healthcare solutions in partnership with Arizona's top institutions.</p><p>MiiHealth's new headquarters places the company at the heart of Arizona's burgeoning health technology ecosystem. This relocation marks a significant milestone in MiiHealth's growth, reinforcing our mission to revolutionize senior care through technology. Our solutions have already demonstrated a significant impact in existing healthcare environments, including a notable reduction in hospital bed days and an improvement in care efficiency. Moving forward, we are committed to implementing a value-based care model designed to achieve a substantial improvement in healthcare expenditure per capita.</p><p>"We are thrilled to establish our headquarters in Phoenix, a space that embodies innovation, collaboration and growth," said Kelvin Summoogum, Group CEO and President of MiiHealth. "Our alignment with the City of Phoenix, Arizona State University (ASU), and the Greater Phoenix Economic Council (GPEC) is a testament to our shared commitment to advancing healthcare technology and improving the lives of seniors. This move enables us to tap into Phoenix's rich resources and networks, positioning us for continued growth and success."</p><p>MiiHealth's new headquarters not only strengthens its ties with key regional partners but also supports the company's participation in the prestigious Mayo Clinic and ASU MedTech Accelerator program. This accelerator opened access to world-class expertise, resources, and mentorship, enabling the company to refine its technology further and bring innovative solutions to market more rapidly.</p><p>Steven J. Lester, MD, Professor of Medicine at Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Science stated, “MiiHealth, formerly MiiCare, offers unique and important innovations in the way people interact with conversational AI and digital tools in both medical and home settings, making health and healthcare more accessible and responsive. Because MiiHealth is a Mayo Clinic and ASU MedTech Accelerator portfolio company, there has been a unique opportunity for institutional learning and cross-collaboration. We are supportive of the organization's strategic expansion into the United States, with its headquarters planned for the Phoenix metro area."</p><p>The relocation comes at a pivotal moment for MiiHealth, as the company nears the close of its capital round. This capital infusion will be instrumental in scaling operations, expanding product offerings, and accelerating the company's go-to-market strategy. By solidifying its presence in Greater Phoenix, MiiHealth is better positioned to attract top talent, forge strategic partnerships, and drive innovation that will benefit seniors across the country.</p><p>MiiHealth's relocation to Phoenix marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the company, one that promises to deliver groundbreaking solutions to meet the needs of an aging population. We look forward to continued collaboration with our partners in Arizona and beyond as we work together to improve the quality of life for seniors through technology.</p><p>“As the center of thriving healthcare technology, research, and revolution in the field, it's no surprise that MiiHealth has chosen Phoenix as its home. Their 'person-center' approach to AI technology is leading the industry and creating a path for further discoveries in emerging technologies," said Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego. "Working together to adapt to how we treat diseases and care for our community is the key to building a future where we can all live happy, healthy, long lives." </p><p>“MiiHealth's headquarter relocation into the market is a signal of Greater Phoenix's emergence as a destination for international companies looking for opportunities in the healthcare sector," said Greater Phoenix Economic Council President & CEO Chris Camacho. “This partnership between MiiHealth, Mayo Clinic, ASU and Wexford will open the doors to future collaboration and continued development out of the PBC."​<br><br></p><p></p><p><strong>About MiiHealth</strong><br></p><p>MiiHealth is a leading health technology company dedicated to empowering seniors to live independently through advanced AI-driven health monitoring and support systems. Our mission is to improve the quality of life for seniors by providing innovative solutions that promote independence, safety, and peace of mind for families.</p><p>For more information, please visit www.miihealth.ai or contact info@miihealth.ai.​<br><br></p><p><strong>About the Mayo Clinic-ASU MedTech Accelerator</strong></p><p>The MedTech Accelerator is a flagship program of the Mayo Clinic and Arizona State University Alliance for Health Care, providing early-stage medical device and healthcare technology companies with an entrepreneurial curriculum and personalized business development plans to accelerate go-to-market and investment possibilities.<br><br></p><p><strong>About the Greater Phoenix Economic Council</strong> </p><p>The Greater Phoenix Economic Council (GPEC), globally recognized as a top economic development organization (EDO), works to attract and grow quality businesses and advocate for the competitiveness of Greater Phoenix.

"Thanks to our Film Office's efforts in promoting our City as a prime filming location, we have seen an increase in job opportunities for our residents and a positive impact on local businesses that provide goods and services to production crews." </p><p>This impressive number marks a significant increase from the previous year's impact of $19.5 million and solidifies Phoenix as a thriving and desirable location for film production. With over 1,341 projects filmed over 1,068 production days recorded, it is clear that the film industry has found a home in the Valley of the Sun.</p><p>As the Phoenix Film Office celebrates its 50th anniversary, this milestone only further spotlights the success and growth of the Phoenix Film Office since its establishment on October 8, 1974. Over the past five decades, the office has continuously worked to attract and support film productions in the City, resulting in positive economic benefits for our local businesses and communities.</p><p>"We are ecstatic to see such a significant increase in economic impact for our City," says Phoenix Film Commissioner, Phil Bradstock. "The upward trend of film productions in the city contributes to job and revenue creation for our community, and it also showcases our beautiful city on a global scale."</p><p>In addition to economic benefits, film productions also bring cultural enrichment and exposure to local talent and locations. Productions include an array of productions from corporate and still photography, documentaries, regional and national commercials, music videos, and TV series and film productions. This year alone, several significant productions chose Phoenix as their filming destination, including the soon to be released indie film “Star People" and the Artists Equity produced “The Unstoppable".</p><p>The success of the film industry in Phoenix would not be possible without the support of our partners at the Arizona Office of Film & Digital Media, the Arizona Production Association, Arizona Filma and Digital Media Coalition and many others who work tirelessly to promote our city as a premier filming location.</p><p>We look forward to continuing this momentum and welcoming even more productions to Phoenix in the years to come.
