Semiconductors

The crisis shaking Intel has sent ripples through the semiconductor industry. As one of the industry’s most venerable companies, Intel’s struggles are under intense scrutiny.

Former CEO Pat Gelsinger wanted to achieve the most advanced lithography and the industry’s best transistors by 2025.

Gelsinger missed the opportunity to capitalize on the surge of AI, which has proven to be particularly detrimental.

Samsung is navigating a challenging period. The South Korean tech giant is reevaluating its expansion plans and restructuring its workforce to better position itself for the future.

The semiconductor fab won’t begin large-scale integrated circuit production until 2025.

TSMC’s corporate culture, described as “brutal,” has intimidated many U.S. workers.

Japan is currently investing more money in its integrated circuit sector than the U.S., Germany, France, and the UK.

Currently, Taiwan’s TSMC and South Korea’s Samsung are the two semiconductor manufacturers with the most advanced integration technologies in production.

The Santa Clara-based company will also suspend dividend payments.
