Why not? From my POV Germany seems good at manufacturing. E.g. Siemens. And cars.

#5TSMC is really the keystone for everything else done that ends up getting talked about on this website. They are constantly at the bleeding edge of computer manufacture and pushing it further still. We should feel some sense of amazement to be alive still in the middle of the computer revolution.

As a German myself: Why would you not invest? Infrastructure, state of mind?
I'd really love to see more high-tech companies invest here, after we've managed to kill the solar companies... :-/

#8Wonder how much TSMC Biontech vaccine deal influenced decision. Assume some level of gov involvement considering Germany was annoyed that US car manufactures got first dibs during shortage.

In general investment in the "old" EU countries is less profitable due to higher taxes, salaries, and other costs. That's why most of the European companies choose to build their new factories in Central Europe: Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Romania, etc. TSMC should do the same.

Germany is positioned excellently for chip production, why would you consider that a bad investment?
