TAIPEI -- Chinese chipmaker Innotron Memory, which Beijing envisions becoming a challenger to industry heavyweights like Samsung Electronics and Micron Technology, is seeking technology from top European semiconductor equipment supplier ASML as the U.S. pushes back against China's high-tech ambitions.
Innotron CEO Zhu Yiming is visiting Europe this week, the Nikkei Asian Review has learned, on the heels of Chinese Premier Li Keqiang's nine-day Eurasia trip to meet European leaders and urge more openness and partnerships there.
