Intel Corp. said it plans to invest $4.6 billion to build a semiconductor assembly and test facility in western Poland, its latest project in the European Union as the bloc seeks to boost chip production amid rising geopolitical tensions.

“With this investment today, and others in the EU, we’re excited to play a critical enabling point to building these more resilient supply chains,” Chief Executive Officer Pat Gelsinger said at a press conference announcing the plans in Wroclaw, Poland on Friday.
