More than €16 billion in investment is expanding Silicon Saxony’s chipmaking capacity. Infineon, ESMC and GlobalFoundries could strengthen Europe’s industrial base—but who can use these factories, and what will turn their output into a lasting European advantage?
ESMC is preparing its Dresden factory for machine installation in 2027. Can the planned investment of more than €10 billion deliver reliable chips at a competitive cost—and give smaller European customers access to production?
GlobalFoundries is investing €1.1 billion to expand chip production in Dresden. The project strengthens Silicon Saxony’s manufacturing base—but who will use the extra capacity, what makes European production competitive, and what should Europe receive for its public support?
Infineon’s €5 billion Dresden factory expands Europe’s capacity to make chips that control electricity in AI data centres, electric vehicles and energy systems. Can equipment makers turn better power conversion into products customers buy in volume?
