About the project
Micron’s domestic manufacturing investments will help ensure U.S. leadership in memory development and manufacturing, underpinning a national supply chain and R&D ecosystem.
In Idaho, Micron plans to invest in two leading-edge high-volume fabs. These plans are expected to create over 17,000 new jobs. The co-location of these two Idaho fabs with Micron’s Idaho R&D operations will drive economies of scale and faster time to market for leading-edge products, including High Bandwidth Memory (HBM), which is essential to the AI market.
Micron anticipates all of its U.S. investments will be eligible for the Advanced Manufacturing Investment Credit (AMIC), and the company has already secured support at the local, state and federal level. This includes up to $6.4 billion in CHIPS Act direct funding to support the construction of two Idaho fabs and two New York fabs, as well as the expansion and modernization of its Virginia fab.
Micron has already achieved key construction milestones on its first Idaho fab with DRAM output scheduled to begin in 2027.

“Micron’s decision to build a second fab at its Boise headquarters is a significant investment in Idaho’s future. In fulfilling President Trump’s vision of revitalizing U.S. semiconductor manufacturing, Micron’s investment strengthens our state’s position in global technology development and will advance Idaho’s role as a cornerstone of America’s semiconductor leadership.”
“This expansion is a major milestone for Idaho and for America’s semiconductor independence. Micron’s investment will help secure our national supply chain and drive innovation in the Gem State. I commend President Trump and his Administration for their leadership in advancing pro-growth tax policies that are critical to ensuring the long-term success of domestic semiconductor manufacturing. Their commitment is helping to create the conditions for American innovation and industry to thrive.”
“Micron’s new fab in Boise is a strategic investment that will strengthen Idaho’s economy and our national security. President Trump’s commitment to revitalizing American manufacturing lays the foundation for long-term technological leadership. Micron’s continued investments in memory semiconductors ensures this critical innovation remains on American soil.”
“Micron's investment in Idaho is a powerful example of what's possible when industry and government work together. This new fab will help ensure that Idaho continues to lead in semiconductor manufacturing and research. I applaud President Trump's leadership in making this possible, and I'm confident that he'll continue working to deliver policy wins in Congress that support Micron's growth and strengthen America's semiconductor industry for the long term.”
“Micron’s expansion is a major win for Idaho. It means more jobs, more innovation, and a stronger future for our state. I’ve been fortunate to witness Micron’s incredible journey firsthand—as a former employee—and to see it grow into both an American and global powerhouse. This progress wouldn’t be possible without the leadership of President Trump, whose commitment to rebuilding American manufacturing and securing our technological future is making a real difference. I look forward to seeing the positive impact this will have on America’s technology leadership.”
“I’m thrilled that our home-grown company, Micron, continues to expand at its Boise headquarters. Micron’s additional investment in Boise demonstrates its commitment to this community and creates even more economic opportunity for our residents for decades to come. This investment solidifies Boise as a global hub for semiconductor technology.”
Idaho Community Investment Framework
Micron understands that robust community investments are critical to building the diverse, highly skilled workforce of the future that can sustain leading-edge semiconductor manufacturing and U.S. technology leadership. In support of Micron’s Idaho expansion efforts, Micron has established the Idaho Community Investment Framework, which reflects the shared priorities Micron and its partners have identified to lead inclusive growth across the state. The Idaho Community Investment Framework was announced alongside the State of Idaho and the City of Boise, longtime advocates of state and local efforts to bolster the success of new manufacturing in Idaho.
The Community Investment Framework will guide Micron’s efforts to cultivate the talent pipeline and enrich the communities where its team members live and work by focusing on three key elements: building the workforce of the future, investing in STEM education for all and engaging with local communities. Micron plans to invest $75 million over the next 10 years toward the priorities formalized in the Framework.
STEM education in K-12 through post-secondary education, as well as training programs, are essential in creating a skilled talent pipeline to fuel U.S. workforce needs. Micron looks forward to investing in statewide education programs, from helping to develop semiconductor curriculum for high schoolers, to providing college students with experiential learning opportunities.
Micron is committed to working with our community partners to understand the impact the semiconductor manufacturing expansion will have on the surrounding community infrastructure and needed improvements. Micron will focus on economic development and continuing to provide community support through giving of charitable dollars and promoting volunteer opportunities.
