Intel Announces Next U.S. Site with Landmark Investment in Ohio
The investment will help meet the surging demand for advanced semiconductors.
Intel has announced plans for an initial investment of more than $20 billion in the construction of two new chip factories in Ohio. The investment will help boost production to meet the surging demand for advanced semiconductors, powering a new generation of products from Intel and serving the needs of foundry customers as part of the company’s IDM 2.0 strategy. To support the development of the new site, Intel pledged an additional $100 million toward partnerships with educational institutions to build a pipeline of talent and bolster research programs in the region.
“Today’s announcement is monumental news for the state of Ohio,” said Ohio Governor Mike DeWine. “Intel’s new facilities will be transformative for our state, creating thousands of good-paying jobs in Ohio manufacturing strategically vital semiconductors, often called ‘chips.’ Advanced manufacturing, research and development, and talent are part of Ohio’s DNA, and we are proud that chips—which power the future—will be made in Ohio, by Ohioans.”
