ITRI plays vital role in building trusted chip partnerships: President Liu
2025-09-10
The Semicon Taiwan Network Summit was hosted by ITRI and SEMI on Tuesday, just one day before Semicon Taiwan kicked off. Notable guests at the event included President Lai Ching-te and other top officials from home and abroad. Speaking to the press, ITRI President Edwin Liu highlighted the role of his organization in building trusted semiconductor partnerships between industry and academia, and between Taiwan and the international society.
One day ahead of Semicon Taiwan, the Semicon Network Summit was opened by the president and officials from several countries, including Japan, the UK and Czechia. The forum gathered global leaders across industry, government and academia to foster high-level global dialogue in chip collaboration, to build a resilient semiconductor ecosystem and expand talent development.
Edwin Liu
ITRI President
The most important role for us at ITRI is to provide a platform that serves as a bridge between industry and academia, and between Taiwan and the world. We have many stations and offices abroad that connect Taiwan and the world, in order to promote collaboration and exchanges in chip industry talents.
ITRI President Edwin Liu pointed out that in the coming five to ten years, the semiconductor industry in Asia will require 200,000 additional talents. Therefore, Taiwan faces three pressing challenges. The first is whether Taiwan’s talent supply will be able to catch up with demand; the second concerns the accelerating pace of skill transformation; while the third is the fierce global race for talent that combines both competition and collaboration. He noted that ITRI, serving as a bridge between academia and industry is committed to cultivating a resilient chip talent ecosystem.
Chen Jang-fung
Vice President of Engineering, Applied Materials
Taiwan is very strong in semiconductor manufacturing, supply chain and talent pool. Applied Materials and Taiwan should form a multi-layered, sustainability-driven, differentiated relationship for engineering, talent sharing and platform sharing.
Trusted partnerships between different countries are key in the face of rapidly changing market and geopolitical realities.

"晶鏈高峰論壇"週二登場 賴總統:全球半導體 台灣扮演關鍵角色
2025-09-10
由工研院與國際半導體產業協會舉辦的"晶鏈高峰論壇"，週二在南港展覽館登場，總統賴清德出席開幕式，強調台灣在全球半導體生態系中，扮演關鍵角色。工研院院長劉文雄則表示，工研院身為學術和產業界的橋樑，能協助訓練更多半導體人才。
總統賴清德及日本、英國、捷克等各國代表，出席由工研院與國際半導體產業協會主辦的"晶鏈高峰論壇"，為即將開幕的SEMICON Taiwan提前暖身。匯集全球產官學研領袖，論壇聚焦"全球半導體網絡"，如何強化跨國供應鏈，擴大半導體人才交流。

“我們工研院當然最重要就是，我們要扮演一個平台的一個角色，產業界跟學術界中間的一個橋樑，台灣跟國際的一個橋樑，許多的駐外點，駐外辦公室，連接我們台灣跟國際的半導體產業人才的一個合作，跟一個人才的交流”
工研院院長劉文雄就點出，未來5到10年，亞洲半導體業有20萬人需求。台灣面臨三大挑戰，一是供給是否跟得上需求，二是人才訓練要跟上最新技術，三是各國在半導體人才方面，競爭又合作的關係。工研院作為學術界與產業的橋樑，要打造有韌性的半導體人才生態系。

“台灣在半導體製造，供應鏈管理及人才庫方面，實力堅強，台灣應材與台灣，應建立一個多層次，以永續發展為核心，有差異化的合作關係，涵蓋工程技術，人才共享，及平台共享等領域”
面對快速多變的市場和地緣政治，各國之間如何建立可信任的合作關係，成為重要關鍵。
