Poland has received approval from the European Commission to support Intel Corporation's planned semiconductor plant with over 7.4 billion zlotys ($1.91 billion) in state aid. The investment, part of a broader 25 billion zloty initiative, is set to take place between 2024-2026. Poland now needs to pass legislation and formally notify the European Commission before finalizing the deal. Intel’s project aligns with the European Chips Act, a 43 billion euro plan to increase Europe’s global chip market share to 20% by 2030. The new facility, located near Wroclaw, will play a crucial role in this effort. Poland’s Deputy Digital Affairs Minister, Dariusz Standerski, PhD, expressed optimism that construction could start by the end of the year. The country is poised for further tech investments, using its experience with Intel to expedite future projects.

It's very good that Christoph Schell provides facts about Intel Corporation: the most modern chips (2 nm) will be produced in Magdeburg - and not old models, as is often claimed - and there is a cooperation with Test & Assembly in Wroclaw (Poland) under use of machines from the Netherlands (ASML). It strengthens the European economy and its resilience, in the past these productions went to Taiwan and South Korea - due to the high subsidies, now Germany is also subsidizing, which is a good thing because it also generates additional long-term sales from suppliers in the regions. Europe and Germany are finally thinking strategically.

Senator Chuck Schumer announced $9.4 million in federal funding to support small businesses in upstate New York aiming to enter the growing semiconductor sector. This initiative, alongside $1.5 million from Empire State Development, will launch the Semiconductor Growth Access Program (SGAP). SGAP provides legal, financial, and technical aid to help businesses join the expanding semiconductor supply chain. The funding complements major projects by Micron Technology, GlobalFoundries, and Wolfspeed, all contributing to upstate New York’s transformation into a semiconductor hub. Schumer emphasized the importance of integrating smaller companies to build a resilient domestic supply chain, supporting U.S. tech manufacturing.

Intel Corporation again in the news in #Germany - after an appearance of Christoph Schell in the known talkshow of #MarkusLanz on Tuesday, German media today report on an important #milestone - the official start of the immission control approval process (the media titels building permit, but of course things are complex in Germany). In fact, it is a request for several required permissions according to the so called #BImSchG. By law, this must not take longer than 7 months max. as it is the larger of 2 possible processes including public participation. (https://lnkd.in/ezqqgRzC) Long story short - contrary to some people that still doubt the progress of this very important project for the #semiconductor industry in #Germany and #Europe, things are going on. Personally, I wish the team all the best and am looking forward to the further progress of #SiliconJunction. -> episode of Markus Lanz: https://lnkd.in/ea-BEDYE -> Media article by MDR MITTELDEUTSCHER RUNDFUNK (in German): https://lnkd.in/eznBxTpP -> Official information on the process (in German): https://lnkd.in/eW_GmU6q #semiconductors #EUChipsAct #Intel #Magdeburg #Germany

In our latest blog post, we delve into the insights of a former Intel CEO, who argues that splitting the company would not be beneficial for the United States. This perspective highlights the broader implications of corporate structure on national competitiveness in the tech industry. With the ongoing discussions around semiconductor supply chains and innovation, this analysis addresses a pivotal topic for stakeholders in the tech sector. We invite you to read the full article and explore the implications of these views for the future of the industry. Read more here: https://ift.tt/hd73U15

Here's the answer:- 1) A guy named Don Valentine worked at Fair Child for 7 years before eventually going on to found a venture capital firm that lead Apple's first ever investment round. Arguably the most notable spinoff from/contribution of Fair Child was what we know today as Sequoia Capital. 2) Fair Child's co-founder Gordon Moore predicted in 1965 that the number of components on an IC chip will double every year. This observation & projection of historical trends came to be know as 'Moore's Law'.  Advancements in digital electronics, such as the reduction in microprocessor prices, the increase in memory capacity (RAM and flash), the improvement of sensors, and even the number and size of pixels in digital cameras, are strongly linked to Moore's law
