Commerce to Hold Webinar on Proposed Chips Act Funding Guardrails

The Commerce Department will hold a public webinar on the agency’s proposed “guardrails” for recipients of Chips Act funding, which could restrict how recipients use the funding in certain countries and align the guardrails with export restrictions (see 2303210026 and 2303220010). The March 30 webinar will be hosted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s Chips Program Office, which will “review the national security measures included in the Chips and Science Act and the additional details and definitions outlined in the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking.” Participants must register. The presentation recording and transcript will be posted on the Chips for America website after the event.
