Applied Materials has entered into a collaboration with Apple Inc. and Texas Instruments aimed at reinforcing the domestic semiconductor manufacturing supply chain, according to multiple company statements on 6 Aug 2025. The partnership is expected to focus on expanding production capacity and advancing process technologies at U.S. facilities, complementing investments already under way under the federal CHIPS and Science Act incentives. The announcement follows a wider industry shift toward on-shoring fabrication. Foxconn recently detailed additional U.S. capacity, and Apple and Nvidia have both disclosed plans for new sites in Houston. The combined moves by major equipment makers, chip designers and contract manufacturers underscore mounting efforts to reduce reliance on Asian foundries and mitigate supply-chain vulnerabilities exposed during the pandemic.
