President Joe Biden's administration has announced a significant investment in Intel Corporation, marking a pivotal moment for U.S. semiconductor manufacturing. Under the CHIPS and Science Act, Intel will receive up to $8.5 billion in direct funding, up to $11 billion in loans, and benefit from $25 billion in investment tax credits, totaling up to $19.5 billion in support. This financial aid is part of a broader initiative to revitalize domestic semiconductor production, aiming to bolster the U.S.'s competitiveness in the global tech industry. The funding will support Intel's ambitious plan to invest over $100 billion in building and expanding semiconductor factories across Arizona, New Mexico, Ohio, and Oregon. This move is expected to create tens of thousands of jobs and significantly increase the U.S.'s share of semiconductor manufacturing. Intel's CEO, Pat Gelsinger, has stated that this initiative represents the 'end of the beginning' of efforts to restore American leadership in semiconductor production, with a goal for the U.S. and Europe to produce at least 50% of the world's advanced semiconductors by the end of the decade.
