Chief executive of ‘California Forever’ says proposal to develop site would represent ‘new home for frontier tech’
The chief executive of “California Forever”, a Silicon Valley billionaire-backed project to build a new city on tens of thousands of acres of California farmland, has announced plans to develop a manufacturing site within the future town for defense, energy, robotics, aerospace and transportation companies.
Speaking at the Reindustrialize summit in Detroit, Jan Sramek called the proposal the “Solano Foundry”. The 2,100-acre site would be located on the more than 65,000 acres in Solano county that the tech billionaires began purchasing in 2017 but have yet to develop.
