## About this tender

3.1 Semiconductors are at the heart of the world's modern digital economy and the recent chip shortage has highlighted Taiwanese companies' important role in their production and the world's reliance on these. The shortage has highlighted supply chain vulnerabilities and the UK Government is reviewing its approach to the sector with a view to improving resilience, on which we will need to cooperate closely with international partners potentially including Taiwan.

The UK is a world leader in Compound Semiconductor research and Taiwan is a recognised leader in production. Last year the UK's Compound Semiconductor Applications Catapult signed an MoU with ITRI to deepen our partnership and we hope for increasing collaboration in this area in the coming years.
