After Trump Steps In, Foxconn Recommits to Flat Panel Hub

摘要

After talks with President Donald Trump, Foxconn Technology Group says it will build a manufacturing and fabrication facility in southern Wisconsin as promised by both Trump and the company in 2017. After saying in late January that the $10-billion, 20-million-sq-ft campus that Foxconn is building near Mt. Pleasant would be more of a research park than a manufacturing facility for flat screens for televisions and other devices, Foxconn released a new statement on Feb. 1 that said it would build a Gen 6 manufacturing facility as part of the campus. A Gen 6 plant can make screens ranging in size from that of a smart-phone to a 75-in. television.
