Chennai: Foxconn<\/a> is mulling setting up a skill development centre in India, possibly similar to its Hon Hai Research Institute in Taiwan, as the contract manufacturing company is building an ecosystem to support expansion of its production base here, people aware of the plan told ET.
The idea was discussed by Andy Lee<\/a>, the chief executive of its Foxtron electric vehicle venture, in the presence of Foxconn chairman Young Liu and a cluster of states at a meeting organised last month when Liu was visiting India, they said. Foxtron is also looking to manufacture EVs in India.
This matter came up during a discussion on India’s young population and the demographic dividend it offers, the country’s expanding EV ecosystem and the rapidly growing market, the people said.
\"Foxconn mentioned that India and Brazil can be their next two growth centres,\" a person directly aware of the developments said, speaking on the condition of anonymity. \"They said that since they were focusing so much on India from an EV perspective, they should explore setting up a university also in India, like they have in Taiwan, which is basically the vocational centres and the industry-academic correlation.\"
Another person in the know said a Foxconn India spokesperson also spoke about building the ecosystem in India in another meeting that was held with industry bodies a few weeks ago.
\"Foxconn said they will be building the skill and talent in the country required for manufacturing,\" this person said. \"That's part of their overall game plan as their focus is definitely shifting to India. It is part of their plan to build skills as required for the expansion of their manufacturing base<\/a> in India — whether it's for EVs, semiconductors or electronics manufacturing<\/a>.\"
Foxconn did not respond till press time Sunday to an email seeking comment.
In Taiwan, Foxconn’s home country, the Hon Hai Research Institute was established in 2020. The institute has five research centres for artificial intelligence, semiconductors, next-generation communications, information security and quantum computing.
\"Each centre has an average of 40 high-technology R&D professionals, all of whom are focused on the research and development of new technologies, the strengthening of Foxconn’s technology and product innovation pipeline, efforts to support the group’s transformation from ‘brawn’ to ‘brains’, and the enhancement of the competitiveness of Foxconn’s ‘3+3’ strategy,\" the company said on its website.
With the ongoing tension between Taiwan and China, Foxconn has been making a concerted effort to diversify its supply chain operations and India has firmly been on its radar with the company keen on building an ecosystem to support its ambitions. This skill development centre could be another step towards that, the people said.
\"Young Liu meeting PM Modi is a big development,\" foreign policy expert Sana Hashmi said. \"It actually means that at the highest level, India is trying to court the Taiwanese company. Since the pandemic especially, the situation between China and Taiwan has become very fragile and there is a realisation that tomorrow, policies can change and be detrimental to their business interests so there is an understanding that these companies have to pull out of China as it is very uncertain.\"

“富士康表示他们将建设所需的技能和人才在中国制造,”这个人说。“这是他们的整体计划的一部分作为他们绝对是焦点转向印度。这是他们的计划的一部分构建的扩张所需的技能生产基地在印度——无论是对电动汽车、半导体或电子产品制造”。
富士康没有回应,直到截稿时间周日寻求置评的电子邮件。
在台湾,鸿海富士康的祖国,研究所成立于2020年。有五个研究所为人工智能研究中心,半导体,下一代通信、信息安全以及量子计算。
“每个中心平均40高科技研发的专业人士,他们都专注于新技术的研发,加强富士康的技术和产品创新,努力支持集团从“肌肉”转换到“大脑”,和增强竞争力的富士康的“3 + 3”策略,”该公司在其网站上说。
台湾和中国大陆之间持续的紧张关系,富士康一直在共同努力分散供应链运营和印度一直坚定地与公司热衷于建立一个生态系统的雷达来支持它的野心。这个技能发展中心可能成为另一个一步,。
