Taiwanese semiconductor giant TSMC announced a $100 billion investment in the U.S. to build three advanced chip manufacturing plants, including an Arizona R&D center. This investment builds on TSMC’s previous commitment to creating U.S.-based factories, with plans to bring cutting-edge chip production technologies, such as the 2-nanometer process, to the U.S. TSMC’s CEO C.C. Wei credited former President Donald Trump’s vision for the initiative. The company aims to reduce reliance on Taiwan amid geopolitical tensions and to avoid tariffs that would affect foreign-made chips. The investment also solidifies TSMC’s relationship with major clients like Apple, Nvidia, and Qualcomm.
