Editor’s Note: Welcome to AspenCore’s Special Project on Focus on Taiwan, Part 2. This special project provides an in-depth look at Taiwan, exploring the technology innovations and role in the supply chain.
Taiwan dominates the global supply chain from chips to systems. Engineers in Taiwan excel in design and manufacturing. Without Foxconn and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., it’s hard to imagine how Apple’s iPhones would have so quickly reached so many consumers around the world.
A big question, though, is where Taiwan will go from here. With its big brother, China, fast improving its own manufacturing skills and design capabilities, what’s Taiwan’s next move? Against this backdrop, we explore in Part 2 key technology innovations such as “Heterogeneous Integration (HI).” Touted successor to a Moore’s Law regime whose economic ROI is dwindling, HI is passionately advocated by Nicky Lu, one of Taiwan’s technology heroes.
We also visited Gogoro, which is, as far as we can tell, the world’s first company to apply electric scooters to the utopian aim of rethinking how cities distribute, manage, and experience energy.
