Government grants provide direct funding to Texas businesses without requiring repayment. Programs range from federal SBIR/STTR research grants to state workforce training grants and local economic development awards. Eligibility varies by agency, industry, business size, and project type.
Semiconductor Manufacturing Programs
Texas Semiconductor Manufacturing Grants, Loans & Incentives
Texas is a leading semiconductor manufacturing state, with Samsung, Texas Instruments, NXP, and Infineon operating major fabrication plants. The Texas Semiconductor Innovation Fund (TSIF) provides grants for semiconductor manufacturing and design projects. Semiconductor companies may also qualify for Chapter 313 property tax limitations, workforce training grants, and federal CHIPS Act programs.
Program Types
Programs Available for Semiconductor Manufacturing Businesses
Texas semiconductor manufacturing businesses may be eligible for these types of government programs, sourced from federal, state, and local agencies.
Tax exemptions remove certain items or activities from taxation entirely. Texas offers sales tax exemptions for manufacturing equipment, franchise tax exemptions for small businesses, and property tax abatements through local taxing jurisdictions. These programs can significantly reduce operating costs for qualifying businesses.
Workforce training programs fund employee training and development for Texas businesses. The Skills Development Fund, Apprenticeship programs, and On-the-Job Training grants help employers cover the cost of training new and existing workers, often through partnerships with community colleges and workforce boards.
R&D grants fund innovation and research commercialization for Texas businesses. Federal SBIR and STTR programs award grants to small businesses conducting research across all federal agencies. State programs like CPRIT fund cancer research and prevention. The R&D Tax Credit provides additional tax benefits for qualifying research expenditures.
Business incentives are performance-based programs offered by state and local governments to attract investment and create jobs. Texas programs include the Texas Enterprise Fund, Chapter 380/381 agreements, tax increment financing, and deal-closing funds that provide direct financial incentives tied to job creation and capital investment commitments.
