2022 Manufacturing Council Mtg. - The federal CHIPS and Science Act of 2022
Thursday, October 20, 2022 (8:00 AM - 9:00 AM) (EDT)
Description
The federal CHIPS and Science Act of 2022, known as CHIPS+, was signed into law by President Biden on August 9, 2022. This new legislation directs $52 billion toward renewing the heavily outsourced U.S. semiconductor manufacturing sector and reinvigorating U.S. chip research and development activities.
CHIPS+ has the potential to reduce our country’s reliance on foreign sources, while investing in a local workforce, bolstering innovation and significantly impacting the future of American manufacturing in the process.
Join the Buffalo Niagara Partnership’s Manufacturing Council for a conversation with Isabelle Icsco, Director of International Policy at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, analyzing how CHIPS+ can impact Buffalo Niagara companies and our economy as a whole.
