Close Collaboration With Govt Vital For Chip Industry: Alvin Tan

Local semiconductor companies need to work hand in hand with the Government to help the industry stay resilient amid global uncertainty, noted Minister of State for Trade and Industry Alvin Tan on July 10.

Mr Tan said close collaboration with policymakers will allow the sector, which relies heavily on global – and increasingly vulnerable – supply chains, to focus on new growth areas in order to navigate choppy waters.

These areas include diversifying beyond chip manufacturing, such as in packaging and software design, and creating new traineeships and research partnerships.

Mr Tan said at an event organised by the Singapore Semiconductor Industry Association (SSIA) at Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel: "Singapore's history is long intertwined with the semiconductor industry."
