About the series

As a result of the CHIPS Act $52 billion investment in US semiconductor manufacturing, the semiconductor industry will be challenged to make important decisions that will shape the semiconductor landscape for the next decade. The Expanding Semiconductor Manufacturing series provides an overview of decisions that semiconductor companies will need to consider when building a new semiconductor fab, including:

  1. How can it build a strong ecosystem and collaborate with the public sector?
  2. What does it take to set up a new fab?
  3. What are the critical business processes that will need to be in place to scale?

Deloitte provides end-to-end solutions to support the semiconductor industry on its journey to build smart manufacturing capabilities.
