The collaboration between NVIDIA and Amkor not only strengthens domestic semiconductor packaging capabilities in the US but also signals a trend towards more integrated chip solutions, especially for AI and data center markets. This will likely spur upstream and downstream enterprises to accelerate their investments in advanced packaging technologies. However, as geopolitical tensions escalate, reliance on suppliers from Taiwan, China, such as TSMC, poses potential supply chain risks. Competitors like Intel and AMD are expected to increase investment in local manufacturing to maintain competitiveness. In the long term, this partnership could drive the industry toward higher efficiency and lower power consumption. Nevertheless, in the short term, there is a risk of cost increases due to slow capacity ramp-up.
