Article Summary
How is Europe placed in the global image sensor market? Tom Hausken of market analyst Strategies Unlimited looks at regional revenue shares and the consequences of a fabless versus integrated manufacturing approach.

Great article on the chip manufacturing industry, not just image sensors as the title suggests.  Almost qualifies as a industry research report.  This is a wonderful read for those of us who don’t work in chip design or manufacturing- so we understand industry trends, challenges, and supply chain strategies are working now so we can look for them and listen for them from company management.  My friend from NVidia agrees with the article’s conclusions so I’ll take this article for what its worth.  Gotta sign up for a free account, but this site has great info so you should be signed up already!
