Tsinghua Unigroup Ltd. has made its latest acquisition on the road to becoming a global semiconductor powerhouse: Taiwanese industry veteran Charles Kau, according to Bloomberg.
Kau, chairman of a venture between Nanya Technology Corp. and Micron Technology Inc., brings decades of chip industry experience to Tsinghua as the company seeks partners to produce semiconductors in China.
“We have cooperation with Micron on the business level,” Unigroup Chairman Zhao Weiguo said in an interview Sunday, declining to elaborate on the nature of the cooperation. “We’d like to conduct business by cooperating with current memory giants, by setting up JV plants in China.”
Hiring Kau is another step forward in the Chinese company’s expansion into the $80 billion global memory market. An investment arm of China’s prestigious Tsinghua University, Unigroup is said to have considered bidding for Micron and also said to be close to a deal for Tongfang Guoxin Electronics Co. while an associate last week agreed to buy a stake in Western Digital Corp.
