Mitsubishi Chemical and Japan Steel Works are preparing a fresh capacity expansion in gallium nitride (GaN) substrates, aiming to capture growing demand from next-generation power semiconductors used in EVs, inverters and data center power systems.

ADATA Technology's board has approved a public tender offer for Tittot's common shares at NT$24 (US$0.75) per share in cash, a move that could reshape Taiwan's cultural sector and attract attention from global investors watching how technology companies broaden beyond their core hardware businesses. The deal underscores growing cross-industry convergence and could strengthen brand positioning across Asia and beyond.

Nvidia has denied reports that its next-generation Kyber AI rack system could be delayed to 2028, saying its product roadmap remains unchanged, after SemiAnalysis pointed to manufacturing challenges in a key PCB midplane as a potential bottleneck for the Rubin Ultra platform.

For years, India's electronics manufacturing has clustered in a handful of states — mobile-phone assembly around Greater Noida in Uttar Pradesh, and a broad electronics and EMS base across Tamil Nadu and Karnataka, where the iPhone was first built in Bengaluru. India's semiconductor push is now redrawing that map, pulling the center of gravity westward to Gujarat.

ASML, Imec and TSMC are collaborating in southern Taiwan to develop manufacturing equipment for two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor materials, marking a significant step toward commercializing technologies widely viewed as essential for extending Moore's Law beyond the limits of conventional silicon scaling.
