hitechexpert.topTSMC Executive Vice President and Co-Chief Operating Officer, Dr. Y.P. Chin, recently shared insights during an exchange with university students, emphasizing that extended work hours do not necessarily translate to improved research and development (R&D) efficiency.
He recalled a past initiative at TSMC, the ‘Night Owl’ 24-hour R&D program, which was launched during a period when the company was technologically lagging and eager to catch up with international competitors.
