U.S. President Donald Trump announced on Thursday that Apple has agreed to work with Intel to design and manufacture chips in the United States, a deal that could significantly strengthen Intel\u2019s foundry ambitions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">The announcement does not come out of the blue. Earlier reports indicated that Apple and Intel had been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitaltrends.com\/computing\/apple-could-go-back-to-intel-for-chips-but-not-how-you-would-expect-or-dread\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:discussing a manufacturing partnership;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;discussing a manufacturing partnership&quot;}\" class=\"link \">discussing a manufacturing partnership<\/a> for more than a year and had already begun working together on <a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/sectors\/technology\/articles\/intel-already-started-making-chips-081642610.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-ylk=\"slk:select chip production projects;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;select chip production projects&quot;}\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" target=\"_blank\">select chip production projects<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>      A major customer win for Intel    <\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Trump announced the agreement in a post on <a href=\"https:\/\/truthsocial.com\/@realDonaldTrump\/posts\/116769225357410422\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Truth Social;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Truth Social&quot;}\" class=\"link \">Truth Social<\/a> but did not specify which Apple chips Intel would manufacture. The president said the deal is part of his administration\u2019s efforts to strengthen domestic chip production and support Intel\u2019s recovery.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Landing Apple would be a major breakthrough for Intel Foundry. The company has spent years trying to attract major technology customers and prove it can compete with manufacturing leaders such as TSMC.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">The Trump administration has also invested heavily in Intel\u2019s future. Last year, the U.S. government took a 10% stake in the company and announced plans to invest roughly $10 billion to help build and expand semiconductor manufacturing facilities in the United States.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Intel and Apple have not officially announced the partnership, and neither company has publicly commented on Trump\u2019s claims.<\/p>\n<p>    <img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/d1c14d239773c309f06875e5043496e4.jpeg\" alt=\"silicon wafer\" loading=\"eager\" height=\"640\" width=\"960\" class=\"yf-lglytj  loaded\"\/> Intel         Intel\u2019s foundry push is finally starting to show results    <\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Recent developments suggest Intel\u2019s manufacturing plans may finally be gaining momentum. The company recently announced that its 18A-P manufacturing process has entered risk production, a key milestone before large-scale manufacturing begins.

Securing one of the world\u2019s largest chip buyers would help validate Intel\u2019s manufacturing roadmap and strengthen its position as it competes for more foundry customers.
