About the Company

GlobalFoundries

Semiconductor foundry delivering specialized chips

GlobalFoundries is a semiconductor foundry that manufactures chips for a broad range of customers, focusing on feature-rich, reliable technologies for cars, IoT, 5G, and other high-growth markets. It operates by fabricating silicon wafers for customer designs, offering mature, specialized processes rather than chasing the most advanced nodes. This makes it different from peers that prize the latest process nodes; GlobalFoundries emphasizes diversification across a global manufacturing footprint (U.S., Europe, Singapore) and stable supply for essential applications. Its goal is to be a leading supplier of high-volume, specialty manufacturing that enables reliable chips for everyday devices and growing tech markets.
