On the morning of January 20th, the Shenghe Jingwei 3D multi-chip integrated packaging project was signed in Chengjiang, injecting strong "chip" momentum into Jiangyin's pursuit of higher-end industries. Zhu Aixun, Deputy Secretary of the Wuxi Municipal Party Committee and Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, Xu Feng, Member of the Standing Committee of the Wuxi Municipal Party Committee and Secretary of the Jiangyin Municipal Party Committee, and city leaders Bao Ming, Chen Xinghua, Zhao Qiang, and Chen Hanjie attended the signing ceremony.
Zhu Aixun, on behalf of the Wuxi Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, congratulated the successful signing of the project. He stated that the large-scale integrated circuit industry is currently one of the important leading industries in Wuxi. The implementation of the project will greatly boost the high-quality development of Jiangyin and Wuxi. The Wuxi Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government will make every effort to provide service guarantees, promote the smooth launch of the project, achieve early results, and help the enterprise achieve rapid development.
Shenghe Jingwei Semiconductor (Jiangyin) Co., Ltd., located in Jiangyin High-tech Zone, was established in 2014. It is the world's first mid-segment silicon wafer manufacturing enterprise that adopts the front-end chip manufacturing system and standards of integrated circuits, serving global customers in an independent professional foundry model. It was recognized as a unicorn enterprise in Jiangsu Province in 2021. The newly signed Shenghe Jingwei 12-inch mid-segment silicon wafer manufacturing and 3DIC integrated high-end manufacturing project has a total investment of $1.6 billion, with registered capital increased to $830 million. The second phase of the plant construction is planned to officially start in February this year, preparing for larger-scale mass production. The launch of this project marks a further improvement in Shenghe Jingwei's scale and a further expansion of its business connotation, enabling more leading innovative processes to gradually achieve industrialization. Upon completion, the project will have a production capacity of 120,000 wafers per month for wafer-level packaging and 20,000 wafers per month for chip integration processing, meeting the demands of the booming 5G, AI, HPC, IoT, and other good projects, injecting strong momentum into modernization. According to statistics, in 2021, the city signed a total of 299 projects with a total investment of 217.553 billion yuan, including 226 projects in strategic emerging industries and future industries, 1 project with a record of 10 billion yuan, and 2 projects with 5 billion yuan.
In the next stage, Jiangyin will continue to intensify efforts in project tackling, focusing on the core areas, missing links, and key nodes of the "345" industrial chain, developing special policies, strengthening stationed investment promotion, fund-based investment attraction, and business-led investment attraction, seizing the "intelligent" high ground, strengthening the industrial chain, and promoting simultaneous leaps in scale and efficiency.
