In a statement on March 15, Intel announced today that it plans to invest € 33 billion in semiconductor R & D and manufacturing in the EU, meaning it will build a state-of-the-art fab in Germany and a new R & D hub in France. We are now ready for plans to expand our bases in Ireland, Italy, Poland and Spain, 'he said, revealing plans to expand manufacturing and R & D bases across the EU.

The highlight of this announcement is the 'state-of-the-art semiconductor fab megasite' that will be newly established in Germany at a cost of 17 billion euros (about 2.2 trillion yen). The manufacturing base, which consists of two semiconductor factories to be built in Magdeburg, the capital of Saxony-Anhalt, is scheduled to begin construction in the first half of 2023. Once operational in 2027, the company will announce next-generation 'Angstrom-era' Intel products, including the Intel 20A and Intel 18A nodes announced in 2021, as well as other companies through the framework of Intel Foundry Services. Intel's semiconductor products will be produced at this factory.
The Leixlip plant in Ireland will spend € 12 billion to expand existing semiconductor fabs and double the manufacturing space to manufacture Intel 4-node semiconductor chips.
In addition, a new R & D base for Intel's high-performance computing and artificial intelligence design will be established in France, and plans are underway to expand existing equipment and set up new bases in Italy, Poland and Spain. That is.
Intel's € 33 billion plan is part of the IDM 2.0 announced by its CEO Patrick Gelsinger at the time of his inauguration, with Intel totaling € 80 billion (10) within the next 10 years. We plan to invest 1.3 trillion yen in the EU.
'We are investing so much because there is a bottomless demand for semiconductors, or chips, in the world,' Gelsinger said in a statement, stating that he would respond to the recent semiconductor shortage. I did. In addition, as construction and factory operations create more jobs in the EU, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said, 'Intel's announcement paves the way for many companies to follow. I'm sure it was. '
