reut.rs/3xram5B
Quick Glance: Samsung to Receive Generous Chip Subsidies for Texas Expansion
- The Biden administration plans to award Samsung between $6 billion and $7 billion to expand its chip output in Taylor, Texas.
- These subsidies will be used for the construction of four facilities in Taylor, including a $17 billion chipmaking plant, a factory, an advanced packaging facility, and a research and development center.
- The goal of the CHIPS Act is to reduce reliance on China and Taiwan, as the share of global semiconductor manufacturing capacity in the U.S. has fallen from 37% in 1990 to 12% in 2020.
- As part of the deal, Samsung plans to more than double its U.S. investments to over $44 billion without taking government loans. It was not expected for President Joe Biden to attend the event.
