APPLIED MATERIALS INC /DE · 2026-10-07 · Importance 31 · Surprise 42

Intel is partnering with Applied Materials on next-generation semiconductor manufacturing technologies and is joining the Applied EPIC Center as a founding partner. The collaboration covers advanced logic processes, next-generation transistors, interconnect scaling, device architectures and Intel’s Foveros-based 3D-stacking packaging for high-performance computing and AI platforms. Work will use Intel’s Oregon R&D campus and Applied Materials’ Silicon Valley EPIC Center, with the facility scheduled to open on October 12 and intended to shorten development cycles and accelerate technology commercialization.
