Intel CEO Gelsinger says China is ten years behind in chipmaking capabilities, and it will stay that way

Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger believes that China's semiconductor industry is about a decade behind the global industry due to export policies and sanctions imposed by the US, Japan, and the Netherlands. While China will continue to develop its chipmaking capabilities domestically, it is currently restricted to process technologies up to 7nm. This places them significantly behind companies like TSMC and Samsung, who are already advancing towards sub-2nm technologies. Without access to advanced chipmaking tools and technologies, Chinese companies may resort to reverse engineering and copying equipment to bridge the gap. However, this is not a sustainable solution.

Reports of a potential takeover of Intel by Qualcomm have garnered attention, as Intel is currently facing a challenging period in its history. However, analysts believe the deal is unlikely to progress due to the difficulties related to payment and regulatory approval. Qualcomm's reported interest in buying Intel's chip-design arm but not the manufacturing business aligns with its focus on the mobile market, but the idea of a full takeover raises questions. Intel's CEO, Pat Gelsinger, should stay focused on the company's turnaround strategy, which includes cutbacks and spinning out its foundry business. Gelsinger's plan has received investor approval, and recent deals with Amazon and the U.S. government provide optimism for Intel's future. The national interest in rebuilding U.S. chipmaking capability is best served by allowing Intel to regain strength and not disrupting its progress with a takeover.

Intel's CEO, Pat Gelsinger, stated that semiconductor supply chains in Asian countries such as India, China, Malaysia, Taiwan, Vietnam, and Indonesia are becoming increasingly significant for the company. Intel aims to have semiconductor fabrication or packaging and manufacturing units in these regions. However, Intel isn't planning to set up a semiconductor fabrication unit in India in the near future. Intel plans to invest over $100 billion in its semiconductor capacities in the US over the next five years. Christoph Schell, Intel's Chief Commercial Officer, emphasized the importance of local industries adopting cutting-edge technologies to attract semiconductor fabrication units to India.
