About ForSilicon Research

Independent data for China's semiconductor industry

ForSilicon Research focuses exclusively on semiconductor industry data — covering mainland China's wafer manufacturing, advanced packaging, equipment, materials, and components, with wafer manufacturing and advanced packaging at the core. We provide comprehensive industry data monitoring, analysis, and research to support corporate strategy and long-term value judgment for investment institutions.

Purpose & vision

Break data barriers and strengthen industry foundations

So every decision can rest on data truth you can trust.

01

National strategic intelligence

Address the "choke point" in China's semiconductor data security: reduce reliance on foreign consultancies, deepen research on equipment, materials, and components, and build an autonomous, controllable industry data system.

02

Fairness across the industry

Accelerate data transparency and a "technology-first" culture. Through deep product, customer, and comparative research, we help fabs identify companies with real technical strength and reward innovation and quality.

03

Corporate strategy partner

Support strategic decisions for China's semiconductor companies. By monitoring equipment, materials, and components markets, we provide accurate inputs for production planning and investment — helping avoid blind expansion.

04

Long-term investment partner

A long-term ally for investors. We combine rigorous data with a long-term view to help funds build professional, durable theses — reducing risk and supporting a healthier industry ecosystem.
