Belgian prosecutors have detained a Belgian-Chinese man on suspicion of industrial espionage for allegedly transferring semiconductor trade secrets from a Belgian company to China. The investigation involves potential criminal organisation membership and unlawful business disclosure related to gallium nitride semiconductor technology.

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

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Your semiconductor startup must tighten IP controls as cross-border espionage probes are increasing in Europe. Belgian firms are now under sharper scrutiny to prevent trade secret leaks to Chinese competitors.
