Wyman says the manufacturing of silicon chips and microchips — essential in virtually all electronic products including cars — will create opportunities for business and education in Northeast Texas. The announcement of the GlobalWafer facility this week said the company will invest $5 billion in the project that is expected to create 1,500 jobs. A Texas Enterprise Fund grant of $15 billion helped to attract the company.
