Gelsinger<\/a> said at a press roundtable on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum<\/a> that \"to us, this is now the No. 1 issue, is in fact the delivery of equipment.\"
A handful of suppliers make high-tech semiconductor manufacturing gear, such as Dutch company ASML. A shortage of semiconductors that erupted last year hurt the availability of everything from autos to kitchen appliances and highlighted the industry's vulnerability to manufacturing centered in Asia.
Intel announced tens of billions of investment in new chipmaking facilities for Europe, including a new fab mega site in Germany<\/a> and expansion in Ireland. In January, it announced a plan for a $20 billion plant in Ohio.
Gelsinger said supply of chipmaking equipment is \"the most important pinch point to the build-out of capacity today.\"
He added that he's urging authorities in the US and Europe, which have each launched their own \"Chips Act\" to promote national semiconductor manufacturing, to speed up the legislation.<\/body>","next_sibling":[{"msid":91741445,"title":"MediaTek launches Filogic 880, 380 chipsets with Wi-Fi 7 support","entity_type":"ARTICLE","link":"\/news\/mediatek-launches-filogic-880-380-chipsets-with-wi-fi-7-support\/91741445","category_name":null,"category_name_seo":"telecomnews"}],"related_content":[{"msid":"91742523","title":"1","entity_type":"IMAGES","seopath":"news\/international\/business\/intel-ceo-pat-gelsinger-says-chip-shortage-risks-expansion\/1","category_name":"Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger says chip shortage risks expansion","synopsis":"Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger ","thumb":"https:\/\/etimg.etb2bimg.com\/thumb\/img-size-24854\/91742523.cms?width=150&height=112","link":"\/image\/international\/business\/intel-ceo-pat-gelsinger-says-chip-shortage-risks-expansion\/1\/91742523"}],"msid":91742939,"entity_type":"ARTICLE","title":"Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger says chip shortage risks expansion","synopsis":"Gelsinger said at a press roundtable on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum that \"to us, this is now the No. 1 issue, is in fact the delivery of equipment.\"","titleseo":"telecomnews\/intel-ceo-pat-gelsinger-says-chip-shortage-risks-expansion","status":"ACTIVE","authors":[],"analytics":{"comments":0,"views":143,"shares":0,"engagementtimems":673000},"Alttitle":{"minfo":""},"artag":"AP","artdate":"2022-05-23 16:20:22","lastupd":"2022-05-23 16:21:33","breadcrumbTags":["intel","pat gelsinger","gelsinger","germany","world economic forum","chip shortage","Devices","International"],"secinfo":{"seolocation":"telecomnews\/intel-ceo-pat-gelsinger-says-chip-shortage-risks-expansion"}}" data-news_link="//www.iser-br.com/news/intel-ceo-pat-gelsinger-says-chip-shortage-risks-expansion/91742939">
