Will Hunt's webinar and research offers key points on advancing U.S. competitiveness in semiconductor manufacturing.

In an op-ed for the Wall Street Journal, Research Analyst Will Hunt debates the merits of subsidizing the manufacturing of semiconductors in the United States. 

CSET Research Analyst Will Hunt and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory East Asia National Security Advisor John VerWey discussed the incentives, talent development and regulatory measures necessary to attract leading edge chip manufacturing to the United States.

CHIPS for America Act funding will result in the construction of new semiconductor fabrication facilities (“fabs”) in the United States, employing tens of thousands of workers. This policy brief assesses the occupations and backgrounds that will be most in-demand among new fabs, as well as options for ensuring availability of the necessary talent. Findings suggest the need for new immigration pathways for experienced foreign fab workers, and investments in workforce development.

CSET Research Analyst Will Hunt shares his thoughts on the global chip shortage.

Since 1990, the U.S. share of global semiconductor manufacturing capacity has declined while the shares of China, South Korea, and Taiwan have increased. If carefully targeted, CHIPS for America Act incentives could reverse this trend for the types of chips that matter most to U.S. national security. In this policy brief, the author assesses how CHIPS Act incentives should be distributed across different types of chips.

Research Analyst Will Hunt describes China's inability to create its own EUV machines for microchip production.
