With the theme “Shared Vision, Stronger Partnership,” the Taiwan Expo 2025 will celebrate the growing collaboration between Taiwan and the U.S. across innovation, cultural exchange, and global industry transformation. To be held Aug. 14-16 at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center, the event is free and open to the public.
The five-day Best of Texas Bus Tour included DFW stops at NTT Data, Toyota Motor North America, and GlobalWafers—with time out for longhorn-riding portraits along the way.
Under new federal funding announced Wednesday by the Commerce Department, Taiwan-based GlobalWafers will build and expand facilities in Sherman and St. Peters, Missouri. In Sherman, the investment would establish "the first 300mm silicon wafer manufacturing facility for advanced chips" in the U.S.—along with the production of 150mm and 200mm silicon cabide epitaxy wafers.
On Monday, the Biden administration unveiled 31 U.S. Tech Hubs in the U.S., including the SMU-led Texoma Semiconductor Hub. Here's a deep dive into how Dallas landed its second federal tech hub in two months, who's involved, and what it could mean for the region.

Beating out potential sites in Ohio and South Korea, the city of Sherman was selected today by GlobiTech for a new $5 billion, 3.2 million-square-foot silicon wafer facility. The plant could eventually produce more than 1 million silicon wafers monthly when production begins by 2025.
It's Sherman's second big manufacturing win in a month. Just weeks ago, Texas Instruments broke ground in the city on new semiconductor wafer fabrication plants with a potential $30 billion investment.
Plus, Primoris Services acquires PLH Group for $470M; Keurig Dr Pepper acquires rights to non-alcoholic cocktail brand; Harvest Returns raises $4M for new fund; and more North Texas deals.
