Catherine Côté Joins PEI’s Board

The Partnership for Economic Innovation has appointed Catherine Côté, vice president, chief of staff and head of the Office of the CEO at onsemi, to its board of directors. She succeeds Steven Gray and continues onsemi’s participation in PEI’s strategic work at a consequential time for Arizona’s semiconductor economy.

Côté brings experience across global government affairs, technology policy, executive operations and complex corporate integrations. That perspective is closely aligned with PEI’s current semiconductor priorities, which include strengthening STEM talent pathways, supporting competitive manufacturing policy and advancing the infrastructure and regulatory conditions required for sustained industry growth.
