Policy
The United States funds domestic semiconductor capacity
The CHIPS and Science Act committed major incentives to semiconductor manufacturing and research in the United States.
The programme reflected concern that leading-edge production was geographically concentrated and vulnerable to disruption. Subsidies can attract factories, but building a resilient supply chain also requires equipment, materials, skilled workers and years of process learning.Sources & references 1 source
