The U.S. Semiconductor Industry Workforce: Driver of American Growth and Innovation

Date: Thursday, May 20, 2021
Time: 1 pm EDT

As Congress considers funding domestic semiconductor research, design, and manufacturing, a new joint study by the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) and Oxford Economics analyzes the positive impact of the semiconductor industry on the American workforce and how federal industry incentives will increase domestic jobs throughout the economy. The report, titled “Chipping In: The Positive Impact of the Semiconductor Industry on the American Workforce and How Federal Industry Incentives Will Increase Domestic Jobs,” finds that the U.S. semiconductor industry is essential to the U.S. economy, significantly contributing to U.S. GDP, stimulating jobs, and paying income to workers.

Please join the report authors for a conversation about the report findings and what they mean for the future of the U.S. semiconductor workforce. Speakers include Michael Reid, Senior Economist at Oxford Economics, and Hamilton Galloway, Head of Consultancy, Americas at Oxford Economics. The session will be moderated by Falan Yinug, Director of Industry Statistics and Economy Policy at SIA.
