Japan plans $21B for NY chip plants

Global Foundries announced a Japanese investment plan totaling approximately $21 billion to build two semiconductor manufacturing plants in New York State. These plants will be jointly financed by the U.S. government and Japanese investors, with the company operating both facilities. The first plant, scheduled to start construction this year and with production expected to begin in 2029, is projected to produce about 900,000 300-millimeter wafers annually and will create more than 1,000 jobs. This move is part of a comprehensive Japanese investment plan exceeding $100 billion, formulated in an agreement with the United States to reduce tariffs on Japanese imports. Additionally, the U.S. government’s stake in the company will be increased to 7%. These facilities will generate fees for the company for at least 20 years, amounting to around $50 million next year, with expectations that they will become some of the largest semiconductor manufacturing plants in the United States.
