A semiconductor foundry also refers as a fab, is a company that manufactures semiconductor devices such as integrated circuits for electronics companies or semiconductor design companies that design and develop their own semiconductor devices, but do not have the fabrication facilities or expertise to manufacture them themselves. Foundries offer a range of services, including manufacturing, testing, and packaging of semiconductor devices. They may manufacture a wide variety of devices, including microprocessors, memory chips, and other integrated circuits. Foundries allow companies to outsource the production of their semiconductor devices, allowing them to focus on design and development. Foundries typically have advanced fabrication facilities and equipment, and they may also offer design support and other services to their customers.
Increase in need for Advanced Technologies: The need for advanced semiconductor nodes (7nm and below) is being driven by the development of AI, 5G, IoT, and automotive technologies. High-performance chips are needed for these technologies, which forces foundries to use innovative production techniques.
Growth of AI and Data Center Infrastructure: The demand for specialized chips is being driven by the AI boom, especially in data centers. Foundries like TSMC are used by companies like Nvidia and AMD to create GPUs and processors specifically designed for AI workloads.
Government Investments and Initiatives: Domestic semiconductor fabrication is being encouraged by national laws such as the US CHIPS Act. For example, a $1.5 billion investment was made in GlobalFoundries to support U.S. chip manufacturing.
High Capital Expenditure: It is difficult for smaller firms to establish and upgrade fabrication facilities (fabs) to handle advanced nodes since it requires a substantial financial outlay.
Trade restrictions and geopolitical tensions: Global supply chains have been impacted by export restrictions on semiconductor technologies brought about by ongoing trade disputes, particularly between the United States and China.
Supply Chain Weaknesses: The COVID-19 epidemic brought attention to the vulnerability of semiconductor supply networks, resulting in production delays and shortages.
Transition to Advanced Nodes: In order to satisfy the requirements of AI, 5G, and high-performance computing applications, semiconductor companies are concentrating more on creating chips at 7nm and below.
The emergence of fabless business models: firms such as Nvidia and Qualcomm design semiconductors but contract with specialized foundries to manufacture them, freeing them up to concentrate on innovation and cut costs.
Sustainability Initiatives: To lessen their influence on the environment, top foundries are investing in renewable energy sources and energy-efficient technologies. TSMC, for instance, wants to reach net-zero emissions by 2050.

In 2025, global trade has entered a period of renewed volatility as the U.S., under President Donald Trump, introduced sweeping tariffs known as the Liberation Day Tariffs. Aimed at addressing trade imbalances and foreign supply chain dominance, the tariffs range from 10% on allies like Australia and the UK to 46% on Vietnamese goods and 34% on Chinese imports. A 25% universal tariff on steel, aluminum, and auto parts has further strained global trade ties. The electronics sector is among the hardest hit, particularly due to the escalating U.S.China trade war. Tariffs on Chinese goods now reach up to 145% in sectors like semiconductors and consumer electronics, while China has retaliated with up to 125% duties and restrictions on critical mineral exports. This has disrupted just-in-time supply chains and increased component costs.
Specific tariffs include 25% on semiconductors, 20% on lithium-ion batteries, and 10–15% on consumer electronics like laptops and tablets, leading to higher retail prices and reduced consumer demand. Sub-sectors such as home automation, computer hardware, communication electronics, medical devices, and industrial electronics are all under pressure due to rising input costs and supply chain delays. Companies are revisiting suppliers, shifting sourcing to countries like India, Mexico, and Vietnam, and redesigning products to avoid high-tariff components.
China remains a key player, contributing USD 119 billion in electronics exports to the U.S. in 2023. Even components routed through countries like Malaysia and Vietnam often rely on Chinese subparts, making the ripple effect of tariffs widespread. U.S. electronics firms operating on thin margins are seeing input costs rise 18–25%, with contract manufacturers in alternative regions facing capacity constraints.
Market research is now critical. It helps companies identify new suppliers, analyze cost trends, optimize product design, forecast demand shifts, and track regulatory changes. Tools like supplier mapping, BOM optimization, and scenario planning support strategic responses to ongoing disruptions. Leading firms like Apple and Dell are expanding production outside China, while others invest in digital supply chain tools and redesign products for cost resilience. In this evolving trade environment, firms that leverage research-driven strategies are better positioned to adapt and thrive.
TSMC to up Arizona investment to USD 40 billion to produce technically advanced chips. The investment by TSMC is one of the largest foreign investments in U.S. history and the biggest in the state of Arizona.
Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing Corporation (PSMC), one of the leading fab companies in Taiwan, planning to set up a semiconductor plant in India.
Fujitsu Semiconductor Limited and United Microelectronics Corporation, a leading global semiconductor foundry, announced that UMC will acquire all of the shares of Mie Fujitsu Semiconductor Limited (MIFS), a 300mm wafer foundry joint venture between both companies.
Samsung electronics has announced the development of its 16-gigabit (Gb) DDR5 DRAM built using the industry’s first 12-nanometer (nm)-class process technology.
Samsung electronics has announced that it has started the initial production of its 3-nanometer (nm) process node applying Gate-All-Around (GAA) transistor architecture.
Samsung plans to build a new foundry plant in Europe and outsource more chips
STMicroelectronics and GlobalFoundries Inc. have announced a partnership for a 300mm semiconductor manufacturing facility adjacent to ST's existing 300mm facility in Crolles, France.
Germany's Volkswagen and Franco-Italian chipmaker STMicroelectronics will together develop a new semiconductor amid a global microchip crunch.
Current News on Semiconductor Foundry:
Indian Government announced financial support of up to 50% of the project cost for two semiconductor and two display fabs in the country to boost the electronics manufacturing ecosystem.
U.S. Congress passed the CHIPS Act of 2022 to strengthen domestic semiconductor manufacturing, design, and research, fortify the economy and national security, and reinforce America’s chip supply chains. CHIPS Act of 2022 includes semiconductor manufacturing grants, research investments, and an investment tax credit for chip manufacturing.
