GlobalFoundries will open a new center of excellence in Penang — one of the biggest revelations from SEMICON Southeast Asia. The multinational semiconductor contract manufacturing and design company already has a fab in Singapore which opened in 2022. The center in Malaysia is expected to be a hub that will oversee GlobalFoundries’s global operations.

Speaking exclusively to Tech Wire Asia, KC Ang, chief manufacturing officer at GlobalFoundries, said the office in Penang will be a step towards the company goal of using all global resources.
“Penang will be one of our global hubs that we are setting up. And to make the hubs work, AI, machine learning, and automation will become a critical success factor. We want to use Penang as a global hub and monitor worldwide manufacturing across Singapore, Germany, and New York. There will be a virtual fabric with a manufacturing control tower, where we can do remote access to the activity on the production floor,” commented Ang.

Ang also mentioned that in co-corporation with Invest Penang, they had located a space in the Bayan Lepas area. The company is currently setting up the office, which is expected to be ready in the middle of September. He added that GlobalFoundries is also recruiting employees, with around 20 trained in the Singapore fab.

Malaysia does not has a good relationship with Taiwan I think. So no chance of TSMC setting up here.

SGS Thompson(ST) already have in Johor
MARUWA in Melaka

come Selangor please , still got many empty land here people no use.

But Penang so packed?

most of the semi cond companies go to Penang one because the supply chain is there.

Penang gonna overtake Selangor as richest state in the country soon.

Island punya cost of living almost match PJ/Subang already. Park High= Klang

Problem is.

Setup here. Not enough talent for that industry..
