TSMC manufactures more than 90% of the world’s most advanced logic chips, making it the world leader in semiconductor manufacturing. Back in 2020, it announced the creation of TSMC Arizona and an initial $12 billion commitment to building its first U.S.-located advanced fabrication plant in Phoenix.

Metro Phoenix is becoming a world leader in semiconductor manufacturing and microchip R&D, and that is only reshaping our economy for the better.

Advanced manufacturing jobs are growing by the thousands in Arizona. We're working with these employers to ensure high school students can fill them.

TSMC's new U.S. plant is unlikely to get the most advanced chip technology before factories in Taiwan due to complex compliance issues, local construction regulations and various permitting requirements,

After four years of planning, TSMC is now finally going to make older iPhone processors in the US, but it's not and never will be a true return to American manufacturing.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing confirmed it started commercial production at its Phoenix complex during fourth quarter when profits surged 57%.

But under Trump administration the future of the Act might be jeopardized as he mentioned that Taiwan stealing US chip jobs and suggested alternative strategies to achieve semiconductor independence.

TSMC’s $6.6 billion CHIPS Act funding faces uncertainty amid Trump’s accusations of Taiwan “stealing” US chip jobs.

TSMC has been promised $6.6 billion under the Biden-administration’s CHIPS and Science ACT to help build three cutting-edge chip fabrication plants in Arizona.

Major tech firms may have to remain dependent on Taiwan-based plants, increasing their exposure to geopolitical risks.

In November 2024, the US Commerce Department finalised a $6.6bn grant for TSMC for semiconductor production in Arizona.

Y.L. Wang, VP of fab operations at TSMC, will be elevated to senior VP for his efforts in resolving challenges at the foundry's advanced fab location in Arizona, US, according to sources familiar with the matter.
