In a tiny Dutch town, a secretive $350B tech company controls the future of AI, iPhones, and global military tech. No one talks about them. But both the US and China are in a brutal war for their technology. Here's how ASML quietly became the world's most important company: ASML, a Dutch company from the small town of Veldhoven, is the secret superpower of the tech world. They build machines that make the world’s most advanced computer chips. Their unique EUV technology has given them a 10+ year lead over competitors and a monopoly in advanced chip manufacturing. Every major tech company, from TSMC to Apple, depends on ASML. Without them, there are no cutting-edge chips. Geopolitics adds to their influence: the US has restricted ASML from selling advanced tech to China, calling it a critical move for global AI and military leadership. ASML shows how innovation can turn a small country into a global power. If you found this helpful then follow me Mr Z for more content.
