Taiwan raising $4 billion to build industrial park in Texas to support US chipmaking supply chain

Taiwan is raising at least $4 billion through the Taiwan Electrical and Electronic Manufacturers’ Association to build an industrial park in Texas. According to Bloomberg, the site is designed to support the countless smaller manufacturers that major manufacturers like TSMC and Foxconn rely on.

  • Analyzing TSMC's fab expansion roadmap — multi-fab N2 ramp, CoWoS, SoIC, and uncorking bottlenecks
  • Leading-edge foundry roadmaps for TSMC, Intel, and Samsung
  • ASML's roadmap for chipmaking lithography tools examined
  • Chinese chipmaking tool roadmaps examined

“We are going to establish a long-term, sustainable supply chain there that can also be joined by American firms and local workers, and not just Taiwanese companies,” Taiwan Minister of Economic Affairs Kung Ming-hsin said.

Major Taiwanese companies are more than capable of spending the billions of dollars needed to set up shop in the U.S. TSMC, for example, has already spent $165 billion to put up its Arizona site, and has committed a further $100 billion to build four more 2nm fabs. However, they also rely on several smaller manufacturers that do not have the financial capability to expand operations into the U.S. independently. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has even recognized some of these companies in a keynote in Taipei earlier this year, nothing the crucial part that these smaller companies play in the global AI supply chain.

Support for these businesses will not be limited to the planned industrial park, too. S. officials regarding visas, permits, and other documentation.
