Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (NYSE:TSM) broke ground in eastern Germany on its first European plant, marking the construction of the 10 billion euros ($11 billion) fab in Dresden. The state subsidies will fund close to half of the total expenditure.
The EU approved Germany’s 5 billion euro subsidy for the Dresden fab, Bloomberg cites European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen at the event.
Taiwan Semiconductor has a 70% stake in the plant, which will produce chips for the automotive and industrial sectors.
Taiwan Semiconductor Chief C.C. Wei attended the event jointly with von der Leyen, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, and the chiefs of Infineon Technologies AG (OTC:IFNNF), NXP Semiconductors NV (NASDAQ:NXPI), and Robert Bosch GmbH, which each hold a 10% stake in the venture, the Nikkei Asia reports.

EMSC is considering hiring close to 2,000 employees. Taiwan Semiconductor proposes sending hundreds of engineers to Dresden over the next three to five years.
