Had the opportunity last week to share my perspective with the top 200 leaders at $AMAT as they plan the next phase of chipmaking.
These are the discussions that matter to me: real technology constraints, hard tradeoffs, and long-term industry impact, not hype.
I also enjoyed spending time with CEO Gary Dickerson and Head of Strategy Tristan Holtam. Gary is clear on the long-term roadmap and decisive on priorities, and that strategic focus is visible across the leadership team.
Always energizing to engage with teams that are building what’s next and doing the hard work to get it done. @Applied4Tech
Applied Materials is the largest US based semiconductor equipment provider. Glad to see $AMAT joining Apple and TI on the US chip manufacturing investment.

$AMAT's new investment with $AAPL and $TXN.
"Applied is supporting Apple’s partnership with TI, announced today, by supplying American-made chipmaking equipment from Austin, Texas to TI’s U.S. factories. Austin is home to Applied’s largest manufacturing and logistics facility.
In addition, Applied plans to invest more than $200 million in Arizona to establish a state-of-the-art facility for manufacturing critical components for semiconductor equipment. This investment builds on the more than $400 million Applied has invested in its U.S. equipment manufacturing infrastructure over the past five years."
Welcome to Intel, Lip-Bu Tan! 🙌
“I’m excited to make an impact and work with employees to really drive to the next era of Intel,” said Intel’s new CEO, who spent his first day at HQ in Santa Clara meeting with employees and customers. https://t.co/Zu1KOhSdY2
I never disagreed that "software was eating the world", but I always wondered if that would run on air without silicon. @PGelsinger coins "siliconomy". Clever and accurate. #IntelInnovation $INTC
30 years ago 80% of chips came from Europe & US. Today 80% comes from Asia. The Chips Acts in US & Europe designed to even out disparity in investment costs with Asia says @intel CEO @PGelsinger @semafor #wef23#davos
