XMC Joins Global Semiconductor Alliance

News


China based semiconductor foundry XMC has joined the Global Semiconductor Alliance (GSA), a unifying body of the global semiconductor industry.

Also, XMC chief executive officer Simon Yang has been named to the organisation's Asia-Pacific Leadership Council.

"XMC has been emerging as an innovative and critical player in the semiconductor manufacturing arena. Its distinctive business model under Dr. Simon Yang's leadership as an indigenous Chinese foundry with a global vision will be very valuable to the GSA. We look forward to Simon's extended industry experiences and dedicated commitment that would bring another unique perspective to our Asia Pacific Leadership Council," says Jeremy Wang, Asia Pacific Executive Director of GSA.

XMC is a fast-growing foundry based in Wuhan, China. It offers 300mm based manufacturing capacity based on the most advanced process nodes. XMC has also established a secure IP foundation with a recently announced licensing agreement with Spansion and IBM.

"GSA serves a critical role in providing a unified voice and structure for our industry. So it is important that we are an active participant in its activities and programs. I believe XMC's membership in the organisation will be mutually beneficial as we evolve our strategy of becoming a global partner to fabless and fab lite companies. I am honoured to help represent our region on the Asia Pacific Leadership Council, a group that will help the entire semiconductor industry be able to better understand and work with companies in this part of the world," concludes Yang.

The GSA mission is to accelerate the growth and increase the return on invested capital of the global semiconductor industry by fostering a more effective ecosystem through collaboration, integration and innovation. Theorganisation addresses the challenges within the supply chain including IP, EDA/design, wafer manufacturing, test and packaging to enable industry-wide solutions.
