Semiconductors power the world around us.
But how did one island become the heart of the global chip industry?
Join us for a screening of the documentary A Chip Odyssey, which tells the fascinating story of how Taiwan built one of the world’s most important semiconductor ecosystems.
The film by award-winning director Hsiao Chu-Chen follows more than 50 years of the chip industry’s development through the eyes of engineers, visionaries, policymakers, and factory workers who stood at its origins.
📽️ The documentary features unique archival materials and interviews with more than 80 key figures who helped shape the semiconductor revolution.
Discover how a technological ecosystem was created that today powers everything from smartphones to artificial intelligence.
