Major Investment in the US by TSMC

Taiwan-based chip manufacturer TSMC is preparing to invest $100 billion in the United States, which includes the construction of five new facilities. TSMC CEO C. C. Wei announced the planned $100 billion investment after meeting with US President Donald Trump at the White House. The company will establish three new chip production facilities, two advanced packaging facilities, and a large R&D center in the United States. This new project by TSMC will increase the company’s total investment in the US to approximately $165 billion. The new facilities in Arizona aim to increase chip production capacity using advanced semiconductor manufacturing technologies. It is believed that these investments will enhance the semiconductor production capacity and technological independence of the United States. President Donald Trump welcomed the investments by stating, “We should be able to produce the chips and semiconductors we need here. This is a national security issue for us.” Experts note that, in addition to national security, the projects are financially important for the Trump administration. TSMC’s investment has the potential to provide significant contributions to the country’s economy and employment. It is emphasized that the construction of the five facilities will create tens of thousands of new job opportunities. The Taiwanese company, the world’s largest chip manufacturer, serves giants in the technology sector such as Apple, Nvidia, AMD, Qualcomm, MediaTek, and Broadcom. It is predicted that TSMC will expand its market share and maintain its leadership in the industry by increasing its advanced semiconductor and chip production capacity with the new facilities established in the United States.
