TOKYO — Reviving the U.S. manufacturing sector will require patient long-term investment, said former Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger, who focused on long-term planning as head of the American chip giant and is now supporting startups after a pivot into venture capital.
Gelsinger took the helm at Intel in 2021, returning to the company where he had spent three decades of his career. He had sought to revitalize the chipmaker by investing heavily in manufacturing operations but ultimately stepped down this past December amid a clash with the board.
