Good exchange with President of TSMC Europe @TWSemicon Europe Maria Marced. To meet current & future\u2026 https:\/\/t.co\/CwCt1nDIDA<\/p>— Thierry Breton (@ThierryBreton) 1619777193000<\/a><\/blockquote><\/div>A company official noted that the meeting showed commitment to Europe and desire to support customers, but stopped well short of pledging to actually open a factory there.
A European fab would be logical. The company has a smattering of clients in the region, but more importantly, it\u2019s the home base of some of TSMC\u2019s most important suppliers, including Dutch equipment maker ASML.
Europe is already considering plans to go it alone on an advanced facility anyway, one which my colleague Alex Webb notes would be wildly misplaced. Yet if the E.U. is willing to write 30 billion euro ($36 billion) checks to buy its way back into the chip race, TSMC may as well jump aboard and offer to do it.
In the U.S., the company will need to do more than open a token factory in Arizona by 2024. That fab will have a monthly capacity of 20,000 wafers, equivalent to what's currently available from TSMC\u2019s largest overseas plant \u2014 in Nanjing, China \u2014 representing a paltry 1.9% of the firm\u2019s current global capacity.
An additional five Arizona fabs may be in the works, Reuters reported this week. This was always likely, but the company has yet to elucidate any plans.
Bluntly, management is happy and comfortable in Taiwan, where talent is plentiful and the supply chain mature. Moving a significant proportion of capacity overseas would be difficult. But surviving in a world that\u2019s increasingly scared of geographic risk will be even more challenging.
It\u2019s time now for TSMC to recognize this new world order, and commit publicly to being a part of it.
