(The Taipei Times)
Representatives from Taiwan’s top chipmakers yesterday met with government officials to discuss establishing a “semiconductor academy” that would supply the local industry with talent, the Ministry of Economic Affairs said.
The semiconductor industry would have a “big say” in how the academy is to be structured, as the private sector is paying for half of it, Minister of Economic Affairs Wang Mei-hua (王美花) said.
“It will be conducted in an experimental sandbox, where existing rules can be relaxed as talent is trained for the industry,” Wang said.
