Probably one advantage of the proposed Austin site is that it's only a 10-minute drive from the Austin location of Applied Materials (https://www.appliedmaterials.com/ https://www.appliedmaterials.com/), a really large manufacturer of equipment for fabs.
- DavidPeiffer 6y agoI wonder if a large fab is a "if you build it, they will come" type situation? When I worked at Micron in Boise, the surrounding area had many fab suppliers.
- AnimalMuppet 6y agoHmm. And that makes me wonder if the city might be right to give all those tax breaks to the foundry. They get to charge full tax on all the businesses that come there as suppliers to the foundry.
