News of the layoffs of hundreds of Intel Israel employees is making waves around the world, especially in countries where the international corporation operates factories and development centers, including the United States, Ireland, India, Indonesia, and Singapore.

In the United States, Intel is concentrating its core operations in advanced manufacturing facilities (fabs) in Oregon, Arizona, and New Mexico, while building a massive new plant in Ohio. At the same time, key development centers operate in California, Oregon, and Texas. In Ireland, the Leixlip campus is one of Europe’s main chip manufacturing hubs, while R&D centers in Shannon and Leixlip lead in communications and intelligent systems.
In India, Intel runs one of its largest design and engineering centers outside the U.S., with a strong focus on artificial intelligence (AI), cutting-edge innovation, and research to support India’s digital transformation, including partnerships with educational institutions and startup incubators. In Indonesia, Intel’s activities mainly involve market development, sales, educational programs, and strengthening the local tech ecosystem, without operating manufacturing plants. In Singapore, Intel maintains strategic regional sales and marketing offices, alongside regionally tailored R&D work, and serves as a global support and services hub.
