Statement from Councilwoman Ann O'Brien on TSMC's $100 Billion Investment

“TSMC's additional $100 billion investment is another defining moment for Phoenix, bringing the company's total Arizona commitment to an extraordinary $265 billion. As the councilwoman representing TSMC Arizona and chair of the City's Economic Development Subcommittee, I'm proud that North Phoenix continues to lead one of the most important manufacturing and innovation hubs in the world.

This investment not only strengthens TSMC's campus, it also expands a growing ecosystem of suppliers, creates high-quality jobs, and reinforces Arizona's position at the forefront of advanced semiconductor manufacturing.

Semiconductors power everything from artificial intelligence and medical devices to aerospace and national defense. Expanding domestic chip production strengthens America's economy, supply chain, and national security, and Phoenix is proud to play a central role.

Under Mayor Kate Gallego’s leadership, Phoenix has worked intentionally to create an environment where global companies can succeed through strategic infrastructure investments, workforce partnerships, and a commitment to innovation. TSMC's continued confidence in our community affirms that vision.”
