Development of the Global Semiconductor Industry and Market and Cross strait Industrial Chains

With growing maturity of consumer electronics, worldwide semiconductor market has slowed down. Showing strong signs of maturity these days, the industry has had a number of M&As, indicating the market is undergoing restructuring. The Chinese government has spared no efforts to level up andfoster its own semiconductor supply chain, which is getting more full-fledged and pressuring counterparts in the globe, including Taiwan. This report provides an overview of global, Chinese, and Taiwanese semiconductor industry developments, comprising of IC design, foundry, and testing & packaging sectors; explores the key highlights and trends observed inthe semiconductor market; examines the cross-strait industrial chains and issues.
