global semiconductor race countries USA Taiwan South Korea Netherlands China ranking supply chain data

Premium editorial infographic showing the global semiconductor supply chain as a vertical pipeline with five stages, each colour-coded by dominant country. From top to bottom: Design (USA — NVIDIA, Apple, Qualcomm, AMD), EUV Lithography Machines (Netherlands — ASML, sole global supplier), Fab- rication (Taiwan — TSMC, 92% of cutting-edge chips, for Apple, NVIDIA, AMD, and Broadcom), Memory (South Korea — SK Hynix and Samsung, HBM market $54.6 billion in 2026), and Packaging/Assembly (Japan, China, and Southeast Asia). Three callout boxes on the right highlight: global chip sales of $791.7 billion in 2025 (record, SIA primary), the $1 trillion projection for 2026 (first in history), and Taiwan's 92% concentration risk. Based on SIA primary data (semiconductors.org) and TSMC's SEC 6-K filing (March 4, 2025). Global Semiconductor Race.
