“Intel is the only company with the depth and breadth of software, silicon and platforms, packaging, and process with at-scale manufacturing customers can depend on for their next-generation innovations,” Gelsinger said in a blog post. “IDM 2.0 is an elegant strategy that only Intel can deliver – and it’s a winning formula.”
The Wall Street Journal’s Aaron Tilley noted:
Concerns about the robustness of the U.S. chip industry have grown in Washington over the past couple of years as semiconductor production shifted to Asia. Those worries intensified in recent months amid a global component shortage. Car makers, in particular, have felt the impact of the semiconductor shortage, causing them to idle some of their production capacity.
