Onshoring Chip Production

Topic

Onshoring chip production, also known as reshoring semiconductor manufacturing, refers to the strategic process of bringing the fabrication and assembly of microchips back to a domestic country, particularly the United States. This movement is driven by national security concerns, supply chain vulnerabilities exposed during global crises, and legislative initiatives like the CHIPS and Science Act. By establishing domestic semiconductor fabrication plants (fabs), nations aim to reduce reliance on foreign manufacturers and secure their technological infrastructure.
