Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (Nanjing) Co., Ltd.

TSMC was founded in 1987 and is a global leader in professional integrated circuit manufacturing services. With full support from the Nanjing municipal government, it has established a 16-nanometer chip factory in Nanjing. As the world's foremost wafer foundry, TSMC achieved revenue growth of 10.6% in 2015, reaching US$26.6 billion, maintaining its leading market share. As the founder and pioneer of the dedicated IC foundry service industry, TSMC has built a reputation for providing advanced wafer process technologies and manufacturing efficiency. Since its inception, TSMC has continuously provided customers with advanced technology and TSMC COMPATIBLE design services.

Through strong partnerships with each customer, TSMC has consistently achieved robust growth. Global IC suppliers trust TSMC's cutting-edge process technologies, pioneering design services, manufacturing productivity, and product quality, entrusting their products to TSMC for production. TSMC serves approximately 470 customers, producing over 8,900 different products widely used in computer, communications, and consumer electronics applications.

In 2015, TSMC's managed and owned capacity exceeded 9 million 12-inch equivalent wafers. TSMC operates three advanced 12-inch giga-fabs (Fab 12, 14 & 15), four 8-inch fabs (Fab 3, 5, 6 & 8), one 6-inch fab (Fab 2), and two advanced backend fabs (backend Fab 1 & 2) in Taiwan, supported by two overseas subsidiaries—WaferTech (US) and TSMC China Co., Ltd.—along with 8-inch fab capacity from other investments.

TSMC's global headquarters is located in Hsinchu Science Park, Taiwan, with subsidiaries or offices in North America, Europe, Japan, mainland China, South Korea, India, and other regions, providing real-time business and technical services to global customers.

Founded in 1987, TSMC is now one of the world's largest semiconductor companies in terms of revenue and market value. 30% of the world's logic ICs are produced using our self-developed technologies and our own capacity. TSMC is a global leader in semiconductor technology. The 12-inch wafer fab in Nanjing is expected to begin production of 16-nanometer process technology in the second half of 2018.

In recent years, the mainland semiconductor market has grown rapidly, and TSMC's business in mainland China has also grown strongly. The mainland is the fastest-growing region for TSMC worldwide. To serve customers more closely, TSMC aims to introduce its "Open Innovation Platform" ecosystem to the mainland, assisting mainland IC design companies in developing the semiconductor industry together. The buildings in TSMC's Nanjing campus will feature a new design concept, visually extending and penetrating, representing infinite future possibilities. Several smart buildings here will encompass R&D, production, office, leisure, and living functions. TSMC will also bring the green building concepts it has long pursued in Taiwan, China, and the United States to Nanjing, fulfilling its commitment to environmental sustainability. In the future, a large-scale integrated campus will emerge here, surrounded by greenery and combining technology, ecology, and living.

Nanjing Advantages:
The first 12-inch wafer foundry and large-scale design service center invested by TSMC in mainland China, aimed at strengthening TSMC's ecosystem on the mainland.
