Upstream and downstream Philips layout to step up cooperation with Taiwan LED factory

General Manager Bai Jiansheng of Philips in Taiwan said on the 2nd that lighting, medical care and quality of life business revenues are all double-digit growth this year. Philips estimates that LED lighting will exceed traditional lighting in 2015.

However, LEDs cannot be independently completed by a single company. Each company will interact closely. Philips will work closely with Taiwanese manufacturers from the upstream and downstream industries such as die, package, chips, modules, and products.

Hon Hai, UMC, AUO, Delta Electronics, Lite-On and Chi Mei, etc., intend to share the LED industry's business opportunities in the future to break the US$100 billion market, and will not allow big car makers or production companies such as Dayi, Twi West and Debao to produce food. The Chinese traditional electrical appliances that started with traditional lighting are unique to the United States and they also compete in the LED field. Delta's use of chips for LED lighting is provided by Philips in Taiwan.

Taiwan's Philips Automotive Lighting Division has supplied Philips' LED chip supply module factory. The module factory will sell the LED modules to major vehicle manufacturers such as Twisee, Dayi and Debao, and apply them to rear lights, taillights and directions. In order to expand and apply to headlights, General Manager Bai Jiansheng of Philips in Taiwan recently negotiated with the top driver of the domestic car lamp manufacturer to assist the car lamp factory to solve the light source optical problem.

Bai Jiansheng pointed out that Philips’ business was dominated by electronics and semiconductors before 2000. As the trend changes, the company will focus on the three major businesses of lighting, healthcare, and quality of life. This year, Philips’ revenue from the three major businesses of Taiwan will continue to grow last year. Digits grow. LED lighting has grown rapidly. Last year, Philips' global LED lighting revenue reached 1 billion euros, 79% more than the year before, and accounted for 13% of Philips Lighting's revenue. This year's growth rate is not lower than last year's level.

Bai Jiansheng pointed out that Philips attaches great importance to this emerging market in Greater China, not only has set the GDP growth target, but also moved some of its business headquarters from Amsterdam, the Netherlands to Greater China, including Shanghai, treating Greater China as Europe. In addition to the second market, recruiting 500 employees from Asia in the second half of last year, Taiwan is the first stop.

Bai Jiansheng emphasized that the rapid development of the LED industry rather than a single company can be completed independently, resulting in a competing relationship. Taiwan's strengths are in upstream and downstream fields such as LED die, heat dissipation, packaging, and light sources. Philips will work closely with Taiwanese manufacturers in the upstream and downstream industries of the LED industry. . Usually the cooperation method is not new technology development, product design, or self-designed R&D, but is then handed over to the Taiwanese manufacturer for three methods. Philips currently has more patents on the application side of lamps.
