INDUSTRY NEWS | SEMICONDUCTORS Hello Espre Community, As you may recall, the CHIPS and Science Act, signed into law by President Biden, happened one month ago. More than $52 billion went to the semiconductor manufacturing industry with a renewed focus on technology research and development. So far, Panasonic and Intel have announced they will build two new semiconductor manufacturing plants. As you know, as a government contractor, Espre Technologies built its foundation on R & D, and navigating through government contract proposals is our wheelhouse. Our strength in this area has afforded us to sign a partnership with Semiconductor Alliance and MITRE Entregenuity, a foundation committed to helping startups like Espre obtain grants and funding for commercial growth.
