Rapidus fab roadmap examined — first new leading-edge chipmaker in decades has one Hokkaido fab, a 2027 deadline, and 60 potential customers
What happened
Rapidus has successfully produced a 2nm GAA prototype and secured government funding, but currently lacks any committed volume customers for its 2027 mass production target. Despite having 60 potential partners in talks, the absence of signed agreements poses a risk to the project's immediate supply chain viability.
