Broadcom Wants Intel Chip Designs? | Gestalt IT Rundown: February 19, 2025

Tech Field Day News Rundown

A report this week claims that Broadcom is investigating Intel's chip design business and is contemplating an acquisition. The news comes from the Wall Street Journal and says that while Broadcom is interested in chip design they are not interested in the foundry business. Analysts are intriguied because that means that Broadcom could either use Intel's designs to augment their existing lineup or perhaps package the businesses for sale to other partners or even competitors. Keith, do you think Broadcom is going to invest in Intel?
