Report: Intel Could Secure Billions in Government Funding for ‘Secure Enclave’ Chip Factories
Intel could emerge as a top recipient of billions of dollars in Chips Act funding to support the construction of secure facilities meant for manufacturing microchips that will power artificial intelligence, missiles, fighter jets and other advanced weapons systems. Sources said the facilities would be designated as a “secure enclave” and could cost between $3 billion and $4 billion, which would come from manufacturing grants worth $39 billion authorized under the law.
