Just as Kansas beat Oklahoma last year in the competition to land a $4 billion Panasonic electric vehicle battery plant, Kansas just made another megadeal with a computer chip manufacturing firm.

This time, the state approved $304 million in tax incentives over 10 years to Wichita-based Integra Technologies in exchange for a $1.8 billion investment in the company reported the Kansas Reflector.

With the deal, Integra will add 1,994 jobs and build a million-square-foot plant in Wichita.
