May 11, 2024 – Intel Corporation, one of the biggest chipmakers in the world, has stopped selling chips to Huawei Technologies Co. This is a big change because the US Government took away Intel’s license to do so.
When licenses are taken away
Qualcomm and Intel’s rights to sell chipsets to Huawei² have been taken away by the US government. This is part of the continued trade limits put on Huawei because it is said to have broken bans.
What it means for Huawei and US suppliers
Huawei and American companies that do business with the Chinese telecom giant could both be hurt by the move to take away the licenses. Huawei was put on a list of companies that the Trump administration would not deal with because of the ongoing technology war between the US and China.
Intel’s Past Efforts
Intel had already been through an attempt to stop the sale of hundreds of millions of dollars worth of chips to Huawei. There was pressure on the company to take back a license that the Trump government had given Intel so that it could send advanced central processors to Huawei to use in computers.
Where Intel and Huawei Are Going
Intel’s permission to sell to Huawei was taken away, which is a big change in the tech business. As the US tries to keep Beijing from getting access to advanced US technology, this shows how rough and unclear the ground is for businesses. We don’t yet know how this choice will affect Huawei’s business and the tech industry around the world.
