Town hall on CHIPS and Science Act envisions key role for Penn State

Penn State held a Town Hall meeting recently to discuss internal strategies around semiconductor technologies and taking on a key role in partnering with other universities and industry centered on the U.S. government’s CHIPS (Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors) and Science Act, which was signed into law on Aug. 9, 2022. The intent of this meeting was to share Penn State’s significant and spanning capabilities and expertise and facilitate internal alignment.  Meetings have already taken place and will continue to occur with other university, industry and state partners.
