    What happened: HP secures $53M in CHIPS Act funding to expand Oregon plant

    HP has been awarded $53 million from the U.S. CHIPS and Science Act to expand its semiconductor facility in Corvallis, Oregon. This funding aims to enhance the company’s capabilities in producing microfluidics and MEMS technologies, which are critical for producing silicon devices used in various applications, including life sciences and drug discovery.

    The expansion at HP’s Oregon plant is expected to boost its production of semiconductor technologies, which will benefit organizations such as Harvard Medical School and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The move is part of a broader effort to strengthen the U.S. semiconductor manufacturing sector, with the CHIPS Act allocating significant funds to support innovation and production within the industry.

    HP CEO Enrique Lores highlighted that the funding would allow the company to further invest in microfluidics technology, reinforcing its commitment to advancing semiconductor technologies.

    Why it’s important

    The expansion of HP’s Oregon facility plays a vital role in advancing the U.S. semiconductor industry, especially in the fields of life sciences and medical research. With increasing demand for high-precision technology in drug discovery and cell research, HP’s investment aligns with national priorities to strengthen domestic manufacturing capabilities and reduce reliance on foreign production.

    This funding also contributes to broader efforts under the CHIPS Act, which aims to ensure the U.S. remains competitive in the global semiconductor industry. The allocation of these funds to companies like HP, Intel, Samsung, and TSMC will help drive innovation and improve technological infrastructure in the U.S.
