Wingtech Technology is a partially state-owned semiconductor and communications product integration company based in Jiaxing and listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange.[1] The company was founded in 2006 by a former STMicroelectronics engineer. Wingtech's main business includes semiconductor chip design, wafer manufacturing, optical imaging and communication product integration.[2]
In 2019, Wingtech acquired Nexperia.[2] The Nexperia semiconductor subsidiary, originally Royal Philips semiconductor, manufactures wafers.[3][4][5]
During the 2022 COVID-19 protests in China, Wingtech was reported by The Wall Street Journal to gain an additional foothold in Apple's supply chain following protests at a Foxconn factory in the Zhengzhou Airport Economy Zone.[6]
