Sony Considers Investing In Building 7 Billion Usd Chip Factory In Japan

This semiconductor chip factory project is expected to be built in Kumamoto Province with a total investment of 800 billion yen (US $ 7 billion) and is supported by the Japanese government to support half of the major semiconductor chips. Gender of Sony and Sony Group is considering a joint venture to build a semiconductor chip factory in West Japan, in the context of the global chip shortage crisis still taking place. The total investment capital of this project is estimated was 800 billion yen (7 billion USD); The Japanese government is expected to provide half of them. The leading Japanese automotive component manufacturing company Denso is also expecting to participate in this project through a number of segments such as equipment installation.

.Sony can become minority shareholders in a new company that plays this plant management role. According to some sources, the factory will be built in Kumamoto Prefecture on the land owned by Sony and located near the area with Sony's image sensor factory. This factory is supposed to produce semiconductor chips used in camera sensors and expected to operate before 2024
The Japanese chip manufacturing companies are largely leaving the chip development race Large-scale in 2010 and transferred to advanced semiconductor chips for companies such as TSMC. By accepting direct investment from TSMC, Japan hopes to recover advanced chip products in the country and ensure chip supply. In a TSMC factory.

These sensors are self-produced by Sony, but semiconductor chips used to process images are purchased from 3rd party, including TSMC. In February 2/2021, TSMC announced that it would establish a research facility in Tsukuba, Ibaraki Prefecture.pret, Sony Kenichiro Yoshida CEO stated that the capacity to ensure stable semiconductor chip supply plays a role Important in maintaining Japan's competitiveness in the international market. This semiconductor chip factory is expected to be supported by the Japanese government to support half of the total cost. This support will be included in the additional budget for the fiscal year 2021. In return for this support, the Japanese government will require a priority commitment to the supply of chips for the Japanese market
The ability to produce advanced semiconductor chips in the country is a priority for Japanese economic security. This expected investment occurs in the context of large economies such as the US and EU are also racing to bring Production of semiconductor chips on its territory for national security reasons. Earlier, the United States passed a bill worth $ 52 billion to support the research, development and production of semiconductor chips. Phong Phong (According to Nikkei Asia) Nguyen Le Tung Phong
