If our districts are Fremont’s “heart,” then Fremont’s “brain” are its innovative roots in advanced manufacturing. In Silicon Valley speak, Fremont is the “hardware side of the Bay” and we’re proud of it. Apple and Steve Jobs chose to open their first manufacturing site here in 1984.

​

And dating back to 1960, the automotive industry has produced millions of trucks and cars from Fremont’s assembly lines. Today, we’re home to over 900 advanced manufacturing companies in our various employment hubs, representing 1 in every 4 jobs.
