Magdeburg (dpa/sa) – Saxony-Anhalt’s Prime Minister Reiner Haseloff (CDU) believes that construction work for the planned Intel settlement may start soon. The first groundbreaking is definitely feasible in the spring, said Haseloff in an interview with the “Volksstimme” (Thursday edition). Federal subsidies for the settlement of the US chip manufacturer could also flow in the first quarter.
Chips are to be produced in Magdeburg from 2027. In a first expansion stage, two semiconductor plants are to be built. Several thousand jobs could be created. Intel initially wants to invest around 17 billion euros in this. The federal government has announced that it intends to support the manufacturer’s settlement with billions.
