MediaTek CEO Sees 'Incremental' Move Away From Taiwan Amid US-China Tensions
Tensions between China and the United States are pushing some manufacturer companies to talk about moving some of their supply chain away from Taiwan as well, although it's “incremental,” the head of Taiwan's most important smartphone chip design firm told Reuters over the weekend. I think in those cases, we will have to find multiple sources for the same chip if the business warrants that." It's happening already but not at large scale, he added. The company has been pushing to grow its US business, and Tsai said the goal was to triple or quadruple sales, although he didn't give a time frame. He said that MediaTek will also be producing chips in TSMC's Arizona's lab when that is up and running, but cautioned that it wasn't realistic for the chip industry to completely move away from Taiwan, the world's most important region for advanced chip making. © Thomson Reuters 2022 Affiliate links may be automatically generated - see our ethics statement for details.
