LeapFive Technology Co. Ltd.: RISC in the Chip Supply Chain

內容大綱
Aglaia Kong, the founder and chief executive officer of Guangdong LeapFive Technology Co. Ltd., a Chinese fabless chip design start-up, is facing a broken supply chain, with issues running from electronic design automation and core internet protocol through to fabrication, packaging, and testing in bringing up her Internet of things chip sets for industrial applications. Using fifth-generation open-source reduced instruction set computing instruction set architecture, she must assess a supply chain buffeted by severe bullwhip shortages and political headwinds, analyze her company’s strategy, and plot a course to assure it will be among the 2 per cent of Chinese chip start-ups that do not fail.
學習目標
This case was written for and tested in a course on management of innovation in China. It can also be used in a global business or supply chain management course. After working through the case and assignment questions, students will be able to do the following:<br><br><ul><li>Appreciate the complexities of the global chip supply chain.</li><li>Understand how the fifth-generation reduced instruction set computing (RISC-V) open-source instruction set architecture affects the strategy of fabless chip design.</li><li>Understand the interaction between government planning and market forces in countries developing cutting-edge chip technologies.</li><li>Develop strategies to make a supply chain more resilient.</li></ul>
