Andy Smith, the leader of our Giving and Volunteering team and the executive director of the TI Foundation, recently discussed TI's culture of building stronger communities, how TIers around the world are devoting their time to improve the lives of our neighbors, and what giving back means to him personally.
Nathan, a process engineer at TI's wafer fab in Lehi, Utah, recently won our Community Impact Award for his work serving the unsheltered and hungry. As an engineer, Nathan is a natural problem-solver inside and outside of work. He used his engineering mindset to drive positive change in his community, saving 7 tons of food from going to waste and delivering it to those in need and collecting more than 100,000 bags that were woven into sleeping mats for the unsheltered.
The leader of TI’s automotive power design services team, Pradeep Shenoy, is spearheading the Applied Power Electronics Conference to make it more accessible and shape the industry's future. He aims to empower incoming engineers by guiding them to recognize their potential, drawing from his own experiences as an intern who worked his way up to a leadership position. He believes that investing in the next generation will lead to great achievements.
Since our company’s founding more than 90 years ago, we’ve been committed to strengthening the communities where we work and call home. “We’re engrained and embedded in our communities,” said Andy Smith, executive director of the TI Foundation and director of giving and volunteering. “TIers at every level of the company, including our retirees, are generous with their time, resources, experience and expertise to make our communities stronger. We walk the talk.” The key to making an impact in our community is getting involved. Watch a video about the impact of our company in North Texas.

One of our company's ambitions is to be a company that we're proud to work for and would want as a neighbor. Our annual "Season of Impact" plays a role in that - a time of year when TIers focus on gratitude and giving back by volunteering in their local communities. TI is committed to building stronger communities where we live and work around the world. Visit our citizenship page to see how TIers volunteer in our communities.
Check out this Q&A with Kyle Flessner, who leads our Technology and Manufacturing Group, on our company’s plans to expand internal manufacturing capacity to support the growing demand for semiconductors for decades to come.

We are continuing to grow our company, join us and be a part of building the next era of semiconductor manufacturing!
Recently, we announced plans to begin construction next year on new 300-mm semiconductor manufacturing factories or “fabs” in Sherman, Texas. The total investment potential at the site could reach approximately $30 billion and create 3,000 jobs over time. Rich Templeton, our chairman, president and CEO shares, “TI’s future analog and embedded processing 300-mm fabs at the Sherman site are part of our long-term capacity planning to continue to strengthen our manufacturing and technology competitive advantage and support our customers’ demand in the coming decades.
