Feds to locate the nation’s ‘flagship’ microchip R&D center in NY – Computerworld



Anish Koshy, a Parthenon Principal at consultancy Ernst & Young LLP, said the center represents a strategic investment in both technology and talent.

“At the heart of this facility is advanced EUV technology, a cornerstone in producing the next generation of high-performance microchips essential for applications from AI to advanced computing,” Koshy said. “EUV technology has been largely concentrated outside of the US and the hope is that having this technology on US soil, combined with the collaborative research environment, will help American companies maintain their edge in designing next-generation chips.”

Another semiconductor expert, who asked not to be named, said EUV technology only affects a small number of companies, such as TSMC, Intel, Samsung, SK Hynix, Micron. “That’s really it,” he said.
