Taiwan's government has resumed plans to expand Longtan Science Park in Taoyuan for TSMC to build new advanced chip fabs, downsizing the project area to ease local opposition. The development could create 6,200 jobs and $9.6 billion in output, with construction starting by 2030 pending approvals.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Semiconductors.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

TSMC’s resumed push for fabs in Longtan means Taiwan chip founders should prepare for new local demand and potential supply changes well before 2030. You must watch local land and community conditions closely to avoid delays in manufacturing expansion.
