Cupertino Apple reported yesterday that it will allocate 500 billion dollars to investments in the United States in the next four years, which will include a gigantic factory in Texas for artificial intelligence servers and add about 20 thousand research and development jobs throughout the country.
The announcement is given after the call of President Donald Trump to companies to produce again in his country.
Apple today announces its largest historical commitment in investments and expenses, with plans for more than 500 billion dollars for the next four years
the technology giant reported in a statement. The notice was also disseminated by the executive director of the company, Tim Cook, in the social network X.
Servers production and even television series
The company plans to increase the capacity of its existing production plants in the United States and build a new one in Houston, Texas, aimed at making servers, which until now were manufactured outside, the statement said.
In addition, the 500 billion dollars of expected spending include from purchases to US suppliers to the filming of television programs and movies for their Apple TV+service.
Trump celebrated the announcement and thanked Cook, with whom he met last week.
The reason: faith in what we are doing, without which they would not be investing or 10 cents. Thank you, Tim Cook and Apple!
the president wrote in capital letters in his social truth network.
Most Apple’s consumption products are assembled outside the United States, although many of its components continue to be manufactured there, including Broadcom chips, Skyworks Solutions and Qorovo.
Apple indicated that last month began to produce its own design chips in an Arizona factory owned by Taiwan semiconductor manufacturing.
