France-based Soitec SA, a manufacturer of semiconductors, is investing $150 million in a plant in San Diego, California, where it will make super-efficient solar panels for the California and US Southwest utility markets. The company plans to employ about 450 people at the plant, which it bought from Sony Corporation. The new factory will create about 1,000 additional jobs for consultants and other workers not directly employed by the company, Soitec said.
The factory is designed to produce 200 megawatts of solar panels a year when completed. The company aims to complete plant modifications and start operations by the end of 2012.

"More than anything I appreciate the honesty and the flexibility in what could be provided for the amount of money at our disposal, while still keeping in mind what the end goal of the research was (e.g. what we needed to find and how it was going to be used next).
Oxford Intelligence’s complete attention from the initial establishment of appropriate search criteria (feedback here was very useful), to status updates during the progression of the project, to the end results produced, we were very happy with what we received. The follow-up and regular communication was much appreciated. I would most certainly use your services again in establishing further contact with potential investment targets where appropriate. I have also recommended Oxford Intelligence’s name to colleagues for future consideration."
