Intel’s Ohio GM Talks Operations, Workforce With OMA

Following the recent passage of the federal CHIPS-Plus Act, Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger said the company was ready to move “full speed ahead” on its plan to build semiconductor factories in central Ohio. (Here is a summary of the bill’s key provisions.)

Meanwhile, Intel Ohio General Manager Jim Evers went on the record with OMA President Ryan Augsburger regarding the company’s Ohio plans, its workforce strategy, and how manufacturers can become part of Intel’s supplier community. Intel expects to begin producing semiconductors in 2025 and will need suppliers to be located nearby.
