The \u2064announcement is scheduled for\u2063 Monday \u2062afternoon \u2062in the Roosevelt Room, during a meeting with TSMC&#8217;s CEO,\u200c C. C. Wei. This \u200binvestment is expected to enhance the U.S. semiconductor industry by establishing new\u200b chipmaking facilities in the\u200b country, aimed at countering china&#8217;s dominance in the sector.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, TSMC had unveiled plans for a chip \u200bfactory in\u2062 Arizona\u200b and received a \u2063$6.6 billion subsidy under President\u2064 Biden\u2019s \u200bgovernance. The\u2063 company\u200b announced an increase \u2063in its\u2064 planned investment to $65 billion \u200clast year, though it remains unclear if the new $100 billion \u200bcommitment is part\u200c of \u200bthat or an\u200b entirely new investment.<\/p>\n<p>The initiative comes <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\">alongside broader\u200d efforts<\/a> to bolster the American tech sector,which Trump has emphasized by touting other meaningful investments,including a $500 billion commitment towards <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/trump-talks-pardons-tiktok-five-takeaways-from-press-conference-washington-examiner\/\" title=\"Trump talks pardons, TikTok: Five takeaways from press conference - Washington Examiner\">artificial intelligence infrastructure<\/a>.
