Pegatron Corporation, a global leader in AI-driven computing and electronics manufacturing, has announced plans for its first U.S. production site with the acquisition of a 168,784-square-foot facility in Georgetown, Texas. The project marks a significant expansion of the Taiwan-based company’s North American footprint and reinforces Texas’ growing role in advanced manufacturing and semiconductor-related supply chains.
State officials praised the announcement as a major win for Texas’ technology sector. “Texas is a global leader in advanced tech and AI,” said Adriana Cruz, Executive Director of the Texas Economic Development & Tourism Office. “Pegatron’s investment strengthens our position as the No. 1 U.S. destination for foreign direct investment and reinforces the power of the ‘Made in Texas’ brand.”
Pegatron designs and manufactures a wide range of computing and consumer electronics—including notebooks, PCs, motherboards, game consoles, and automotive electronics—and serves major global technology brands. Vice President Charles Lin described the Georgetown expansion as “a significant step that allows Pegatron to provide customers with better solutions and services in the U.S.”
The facility will be located in the Blue Springs development, with construction expected to begin before December 31, 2025. Pegatron has committed to at least $35 million in capital investment and plans to hire hundreds of high-tech workers, including 100 positions to be filled within the first three years.
The project was supported by a coalition of regional partners, including the City of Georgetown, Williamson County, Opportunity Austin, the Governor’s Office of Economic Development & Tourism, and the Austin Regional Manufacturing Association. Opportunity Austin began recruitment efforts in late 2024, ultimately submitting a competitive slate of sites across the Austin region.
“Pegatron’s decision highlights the Austin region’s growing role as a hub for high-tech manufacturing,” said Opportunity Austin CEO Ed Latson. Local leaders echoed the sentiment, calling the project a generational investment in jobs and regional capacity.
Economic development agreements tied to capital investment and job creation are now under consideration by the Georgetown City Council and the Williamson County Commissioners Court.
