Now, Apple is working with Bosch, Cirrus Logic, TDK, and Qnity Electronics on new programs that will run through 2030.
“At Apple, we believe in the power of American innovation and manufacturing, and we’re proud to partner with even more companies to produce critical components and cutting-edge materials for our products right here in the U.S.,” Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO said via press release.
Apple has already committed to a $600 billion, four-year plan that included some of its most vital manufacturing partners. Amkor, Applied Materials, Broadcom, Coherent, Corning, GlobalFoundries, GlobalWafers America, MP Materials, Samsung, and Texas Instruments were all already on board.
Like the last two announcements, this announcement covers manufacturing partners that Apple has either already supported, or have been Apple partners for some time.
