AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Economic Priorities: In his National Day address, President Lai Ching-te said Taiwan’s growth could top 11% this year and urged industries beyond semiconductors to form a stronger economic base, with overseas expansion helping suppliers deepen roots at home. Silicon Valley Links: Former president Tsai Ing-wen called for stronger two-way ties, urging Taiwanese tech entrepreneurs to share their expertise and bring back talent, investment and new ideas. AI Chip Supply: TSMC and GlobalFoundries struck a US$2 billion deal for US-based silicon interposers, a key packaging component for AI chips. Workforce Risks: Micron’s Taoyuan union won approval to strike in a dispute over bonuses, raising a potential labor challenge for the island’s chip industry. Energy Infrastructure: South Korea’s LS Electric formed a Taiwan joint venture with Formosa Plastics affiliates to pursue power infrastructure projects.
