Semiconductor and integrated circuits industry
Development foundation:
Xiamen is home to more than 200 integrated circuit (IC) enterprises which form an industrial chain covering IC design, manufacturing, testing, equipment and materials as well as applications. Xiamen's IC industry reached an output value of 41.7 billion yuan ($6.11 billion) in 2018. Three IC clusters were formed – the Torch High-tech Industrial Zone, Haicang district and Huli area of Xiamen Free Trade Zone. The city also has three platforms - Xiamen IC Design Public Service Platform, National IC Industrialization Base EDA Platform and Xiamen IC R&D, Design and Test Center.
Representative enterprises include IC enterprises such as United Semi, Xiamen Sanan Integrated Circuit, Silan, Tongfu Microelectronics, JSX Electronic Technology and Unisoc, and LED enterprises such as San'an Optoelectronics, Changelight, Kaistar Lighting, Qiangli Jucai Opto-Electronic Technology and Leedarson Lighting.

Why Xiamen
-
Xiamen is one of the most economically competitive cities in China and was one of the first Special Economic Zones on the Chinese mainland. As a vice-provincial city independently listed on the State development plan, it has provincial-level authority in economic administration and local legislative power. In 2010, the Xiamen SEZ was expanded to cover the entire municipality. Today, Xiamen is a modern and international port city.
