It’s not like they had any other choice. They came to Phoenix because the only other cutting edge fab in the world is in Phoenix. Since their people will be on the other side of the planet, TSMC will need that Phoenix talent pool to have any hope of spinning up their American fab.
- jmpman 4y agoTSMC screwed up if that was their plan. All the other Fabs in the valley are about 1.5hr away during rush hour traffic from the new TSMC site. Anyone who wants to move to TSMC has to sell their house and relocate to a much less desirable part of town.
- archontes 4y agoYeah, I'd be willing to wager Houston would be happy to snap up manufacturing and has plenty of skill in the talent pool. And proximity to Monterrey for cheap labor.
