HSINCHU -- Taiwan's United Microelectronics Corp., the world's fourth biggest contract chipmaker that supplies Qualcomm and Sony, said it is open to more acquisitions amid a wave of consolidation in the sector.
UMC President S.C. Chien told the Nikkei Asian Review that while rising competition from Chinese manufacturers was a concern, he remained bullish about 2020, with rising revenue expected to return the company to growth as it focuses on key markets in South Korea, Taiwan and the U.S.
