🤝 The measure follows talks between Tim Cook and President Donald Trump, which revealed the Cupertinians' huge investment in the US economy.
🆙 This is the company's largest investment yet and is designed to take U.S. innovation and advanced high-skilled manufacturing to the next level. Apple will support a wide range of initiatives focused on artificial intelligence, silicon engineering and skills development for students and workers across the country.
📍 Teams and facilities will expand in Michigan, Texas, California, Arizona, Nevada, Iowa, Oregon, North Carolina and Washington.
💰 Plans include the start-up of a new plant in Texas, the second in the US. In addition, as part of this investment package, Apple and partners will open a new advanced manufacturing facility in Houston to produce servers supporting Apple Intelligence (Private Cloud Compute). The $500 billion total includes Apple working with thousands of suppliers in all 50 states, direct employment, Apple Intelligence infrastructure and data centers, corporate facilities, and Apple tv+ manufacturing in 20 states.
🏆 Apple remains one of the largest U.S. taxpayers, having paid more than $75 billion in taxes over the past five years, including $19 billion in 2024 alone.
We are bullish on the future of American innovation, and we’re proud to build on our long-standing U.S. investments with this $500 billion commitment to our country’s future. From doubling our Advanced Manufacturing Fund, to building advanced technology in Texas, we’re thrilled to expand our support for American manufacturing. And we’ll keep working with people and companies across this country to help write an extraordinary new chapter in the history of American innovation,
– said Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO.
