Apple expands US investment with new Texas facility
The United States will receive a $500 billion investment over the next four years, creating thousands of jobs and building a new facility to support its artificial intelligence initiatives.
Apple has unveiled plans to invest $500 billion in the United States over the next four years. The investment will include the construction of a large facility in Texas for the production of AI servers, as well as the creation of 20,000 research and development jobs nationwide. This pledge highlights Apple’s continued commitment to strengthening its presence in the US, despite many of its products being assembled overseas.
Part of the investment will also go towards enhancing Apple’s Advanced Manufacturing Fund, which will grow from $5 billion to $10 billion. This fund will support the production of advanced silicon chips at a facility in Arizona, alongside a collaboration with Foxconn to build a 250,000-square-foot server assembly plant in Houston.
Additionally, Apple will open a new manufacturing academy in Michigan to help local businesses improve their processes and skills. These initiatives follow a similar commitment made in 2018, further cementing Apple’s role in the US economy and its ongoing expansion in research and manufacturing.
