Semiconductor industry in china20151126R1.2xiaolong zheng
The document discusses the semiconductor industry in China and Taiwan. It notes that China is now the largest semiconductor market in the world, accounting for 50.7% of the global market in 2014. However, China remains dependent on imports for its semiconductor needs. Taiwan has become a leader in the foundry business model through companies like TSMC. TSMC succeeded through innovative business strategies, a focus on technology leadership and customer service, and the strong leadership of Morris Chang. The semiconductor industry is characterized by high barriers to entry and long product life cycles. Countries must focus on their strengths like technology leadership, low costs, or government support to compete.

Power GaN 2017: Epitaxy, Devices, Applications, and Technology Trends 2017 Re...Yole Developpement
The GaN power device supply chain is acting to support market growth.
THE SUPPLY CHAIN FOR POWER GAN PREPARES FOR PRODUCTION
The supply chain is close to being settle for the Power GaN market and deals during 2017 show confidence that GaN will be a successful market. First of all, there have been big investments from the main foundries to increase their capacity to handle mass production. Navitas just announced the partnership with TSMC and Amkor to ramp production capacity. Moreover, BMW i Ventures has just invested in GaN Systems. The Taiwan’s Ministry of Economic Affairs is also interested in using GaN for clean and green technologies, also in collaboration with GaN Systems.
GaN manufacturers continue developing new products and provide samples to customers, as is the case with EPC and its wireless charging line. During 2017, Panasonic announced the mass production of its 650 V products and Exagan successfully produced its first high voltage devices on 8-inch wafers. Other players are in the final phase of R&D or qualification for their GaN products to be launched in 2018. In both cases, manufacturers and clients are pushing to use GaN HEMTs in emerging technologies.
Yole Développement differentiates the Power GaN supply chain into two main models: the Integrated Device Manufacturer (IDM) model and the foundry model. We think that both IDM and foundry models will co-exist while there are different needs on the market, for example in consumer and industrial applications. In addition to the existing models, China is introducing a model with an R&D research center or design center, an external epitaxial supplier and a foundry for manufacturing, to support large-scale demand in the future.
This report furnishes an overview of the GaN power industry, covering the value chain from epitaxy and device design to device processing. It updates the supply chain and there is an overview of the year’s investments.

Data Innovation Spaces are identified by BDVA as a key instrument to foster the Data-Driven Innovation in Europe. They provide innovation and experimentation environments where companies in their respective ecosystems could have their data-driven and AI-related products and solutions piloted, tested, and exploited before going to the market. BDVA launches every year a process to identify and recognize relevant initiatives in Europe that meet specific quality criteria in infrastructures, services, projects, and sectors of application, ecosystem and sustainability (BDVA i-Spaces call for labels).
During this session, we will present the concept of BDVA i-Spaces (as it is reflected in the BDVA SRIA), the process and steps of i-Spaces labeling, the value proposition of being an i-Space and activities and examples of collaboration. The session will also include examples of first-hand experience from three recognized i-Spaces: ITAINNOVA (DIH Aragon), UPM, and Demokritos NCSR (aheed DIH).
