Intel (INTC.O) will invest €5 billion ($5.7 billion) to expand its Leixlip campus near Dublin, increasing capacity for data‑center processors, including flagship Xeon server CPUs, and boosting R&D. The company said the expansion is part of plans to raise data‑center processor output and, Executive VP Naga Chandrasekaran said, to improve delivery for foundry customers as it seeks to bolster its foundry business. Intel framed the investment as an effort to regain manufacturing leadership amid the AI boom and to strengthen competition with TSMC.
