Intel is not funded by venture capital.

You could remove venture and it would still be accurate

>>colin_+(OP)
The new fabs were funded by PE.

PE is not VC. VC is targeted at early-stage companies, which Intel is not.

Sorry, but I don’t find it a very insightful comment.

(Removed comment about it being AI-generated since that might be unfair.)

Its not AI generated. Sorry friend. Even if it was, assess the message, not the medium :)

Replace VC with shareholders - the point is the same. Someone wants more money out than in. That same someone doesn’t have long-term incentive to care about our future, or even the customer

To achieve that, business owners do as I mentioned and more. Not out of maliciousness or spite, but out of necessity

>>colin_+a2
Depending on the PE firm, it could make the worst VC look like an angel

>>selimt+H
Not really. Intel made an agreement with a PE firm while well into building the fabs. In terms of the overall capital spent, most of it is Intel's.
