VELDHOVEN, Netherlands -- The buildup of chip production in Western countries is unlikely to shift the industry's balance of power away from Asia, according to Christophe Fouquet, president and CEO of ASML, the Dutch maker of highly prized semiconductor making machinery.
Fouquet spoke to Nikkei Asia in an exclusive interview at ASML's headquarters a few weeks after traveling to Dresden, Germany, for the groundbreaking ceremony for Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.'s first European plant, seen as crucial to the bloc's effort to restore its chip production prowess.
