CEO Letter: 2025-26 Intel Corporate Responsibility Report

CEO Lip-Bu Tan outlines progress to rebuild execution, strengthen core businesses, and advance responsible growth in the AI era.

Over the past year, we have laid the foundation for a new Intel. I have spent time with customers, industry peers, employees, and government leaders, and the message is clear: the world needs Intel at its best—an engineering‑first company that listens, learns, and executes.

We are revitalizing our core businesses and rebuilding trust in our execution. That begins with strengthening our product roadmaps across client and data center markets and applying a financially disciplined approach to building a trusted, globally competitive foundry aligned with demand and customer commitments.

As a global technology leader, we play an essential role in advancing semiconductor innovation and strengthening supply chain resilience. We are deepening collaboration across governments, industry, and the broader ecosystem to support the continued, sustainable scaling of AI and the digital infrastructure that powers the world.

Our impact begins long before our products are launched. It starts with responsible manufacturing, energy efficiency, water stewardship, human rights, supply chain resilience, and community engagement—all of which ultimately strengthen our long-term competitiveness.

And none of this happens without our people, who are central to our execution. We are building a culture that values technical excellence, accountability, and direct feedback, while investing in the skills needed to lead in the AI era.

While considerable work lies ahead, we are moving in the right direction as we build a new Intel. We remain focused on disciplined execution to deliver for the customers and stakeholders who rely on us.

Thank you for your continued partnership.

Lip-Bu Tan,

Chief Executive Officer
