Intel signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Tata Electronics to explore semiconductor chip manufacturing and advanced packaging in India. The collaboration focuses on leveraging Tata’s upcoming Dholera chip fabrication facility in Gujarat and the Guwahati OSAT unit in Assam. Both entities aim to strengthen India’s semiconductor value chain, support domestic chip production and contribute to global supply chain resilience at a time when demand for AI-driven technologies is rising rapidly. The partnership also includes potential work on advanced packaging technologies and AI-based PC solutions. Intel’s CEO Lip-Bu Tan’s visit to India and meetings with national leaders further highlight the strategic importance of this initiative.
