TSM's executive Chairman Mark Liu mentioned ongoing communication with the US government regarding their Arizona plant, with volume production of 4nm process technology expected in the first half of 2025. The start of production at this plant was delayed to 2025 due to a shortage of skilled workers, and the second Arizona plant is expected to begin operations between 2027 and 2028. Additionally, TSMC plans to open a new chipmaking foundry in Japan on February 24, with volume production set for Q4 2024. This expansion aligns with TSMC's strategy to meet customer needs and government subsidies in a globally fractured environment. The company also plans to start construction of a fab in Germany later this year. Despite a challenging 2023, TSMC anticipates healthy growth in 2024, driven by the demand for AI technology.
