🇺🇸 President Trump’s historic trade deal with Japan is delivering $21 BILLION to build two new semiconductor factories in upstate New York.
GlobalFoundries will operate these facilities, creating 28,000 American jobs, reshoring critical semiconductor manufacturing, and strengthening our national security.
America First trade in action.
SIA CEO @MRobbinsSIA was honored to join @GlobalFoundries Executive Chairman Tom Caulfield and CEO Tim Breen, @CommerceGov Secretary @howardlutnick, Ambassador Satoshi Katahira, @CirrusLogic CEO and SIA Board Vice Chair John Forsyth, and other major partners for the groundbreaking of a new semiconductor fab in Malta, NY. This major investment reflects the power of U.S.-Japan collaboration to strengthen domestic manufacturing, create high-skilled jobs, and reinforce the semiconductor supply chains that underpin our economic and national security. Strong partnerships and smart policies are essential to building a more resilient semiconductor ecosystem and ensuring the United States continues to lead in semiconductor innovation and manufacturing.
Congratulations to @GlobalFoundries, @CommerceGov, and the government of Japan on this landmark initiative! This investment will expand U.S. #semiconductor manufacturing capacity, support tens of thousands of jobs, and strengthen the supply chains essential to our economic and national security. By building on the complementary strengths of the United States and our allies, we can accelerate innovation, expand manufacturing, and meet growing demand for semiconductors in the U.S. and around the world.

It was an incredible honor to receive the National Medal of Science from @POTUS today.
My parents came to America with big dreams and a deep belief in education and hard work. This country gave me the opportunity to pursue my passion for semiconductors and work with extraordinary people to push the boundaries of what is possible.
I am so excited about what we can accomplish together as America continues to lead the world in science and technology.
.@POTUS presents the National Medal of Science to Sergey Brin, @JensenHuang, @elonmusk, and @LisaSu, and the National Medal of Technology and Innovation to @MichaelDell and @satyanadella.
SIA was honored to attend the “Science: A New Golden Age" Summit today, where the leaders of two SIA member companies – @AMD Chair & CEO and SIA Board Chair @LisaSu and @nvidia Founder & CEO @JensenHuang – were among several top leaders in tech to receive the National Medal of Science. This prestigious honor recognizes their extraordinary contributions to American innovation and technology leadership, and their lasting impact on the #semiconductor industry.
