TSMC announces $100 billion investment in US Arizona facilities

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) announced a significant expansion of its investment in the United States, pledging an additional $100 billion for its facilities in Arizona. The company plans to construct four more wafer fabrication plants, incorporating advanced manufacturing processes such as 2-nanometer technology and advanced packaging.

This will create tens of thousands of American jobs and bring advanced semiconductor manufacturing back to the United States.

This substantial investment aims to meet the robust demand from US customers for years to come. The announcement was met with immediate statements of support from the White House and the Department of Commerce. This latest commitment escalates TSMC's total investment in the US to $265 billion, establishing 12 advanced semiconductor manufacturing and packaging facilities.

US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick hailed the investment as a key outcome of the historic trade and investment agreement between the US and Taiwan earlier this year. He noted that this expansion continues the investment plan initially announced in March 2025. The Commerce Department highlighted that the new investment will create numerous construction and high-tech jobs, generate billions in indirect economic benefits, and reinforce the Trump administration's strategy to reshore US manufacturing and maintain technological leadership.

“

We are grateful for the cooperation and support of the Trump administration, Secretary Lutnick, and our key U.S. customers, and are announcing an additional $100 billion investment, bringing our total investment in the United States to $265 billion, further expanding the largest foreign direct investment in U.S. history.

TSMC Chairman C.C. Wei expressed gratitude for the support from the Trump administration and key US customers. He stated that this investment, the largest foreign direct investment in US history, will further foster the US semiconductor ecosystem, enhance supply chain resilience, and create significant employment opportunities. The agreement also anticipates further investment from Taiwanese companies in the US, totaling $250 billion in direct investment and another $250 billion for critical semiconductor supply chain components.

“

We believe this investment will further promote the development of the U.S. semiconductor ecosystem, strengthen supply chain resilience, and create numerous job opportunities.
