Intel announced it will repurchase a 49% stake in its Ireland-based Fab 34 joint venture from Apollo for $14.2 billion.

The move reverses a 2024 transaction in which Apollo invested $11.2 billion for the stake, providing Intel with financial flexibility at the time. The buyback reflects Intel’s improved balance sheet and evolving strategy as demand for AI-driven computing continues to grow.

The transaction will be funded through a combination of cash and approximately $6.5 billion in new debt issuance. Intel expects the deal to be accretive to earnings per share and to strengthen its credit profile over the long term.

Fab 34 in Ireland remains a key part of Intel’s global manufacturing network, supporting advanced chip production for AI and next-generation processors.

CrowdStrike and Intel expand partnership to secure next-generation AI PCs

March 25, 2026 — CrowdStrike announced an expanded collaboration with Intel to enhance cybersecurity for AI-powered personal computers, as artificial intelligence workloads increasingly shift to endpoint devices.

The partnership integrates CrowdStrike’s Falcon platform with Intel’s AI hardware technologies, enabling real-time threat detection, data protection, and improved visibility across AI-driven workflows directly on devices.

The companies said the solution addresses new security risks created by AI PCs, where sensitive data is processed locally, expanding the attack surface. The combined platform leverages hardware-level telemetry and AI-driven threat intelligence to detect and stop advanced attacks more quickly.

CrowdStrike noted that the collaboration aims to close the gap between where AI operates and where security is applied, helping enterprises securely adopt AI-powered computing at scale.
