The company will continue investing in its wafer plants in the United States and Germany, expand its capacity in Singapore, and construct a facility to produce 12-inch wafers in Chengdu, China in order to satisfy Chinese and global demands for the company's cutting-edge 22FDX technology.
According to the cooperation plan of the two parties, the Chengdu plant will start production in Q4 of 2018, with fabrication of the advanced 22FDX to begin in Q4 of 2019.
CEO of GLOBALFOUNDRIES, Sanjay Jha, indicated that, "From the world-class RF-SOI platform used for wireless Internet devices, to the technical roadmaps of the state-of-the-art FD-SOI and FinFET, they all serve as evidence of the market's tremendous demands for our main staple and progressive technologies. The construction of the 12-inch wafer plant in the High and New Technology Development Area of Chengdu will be conducive to accelerating our expansion in the Chinese market."

In Chinese, the name "Ge Xin" shares the same pronunciation as the Chinese word for "innovation" and signifies rebirth, reinvigoration and reform.
