Infineon Technologies officially inaugurated its new backend semiconductor manufacturing site in Bangkok, Samut Prakan, with an initial investment of more than €100 million ($113.57 million). The facility strengthens and diversifies Infineon’s global production network, supports dual sourcing for customers and complements the company’s expanding frontend capacity. It begins with Module A and up to 30,000 square meters of cleanroom space, with potential to reach five modules and 150,000 square meters over time. The site currently employs around 350 people and is expected to grow to approximately 1,000 as Module A ramps up. Thailand is seeking $18 billion in semiconductor investment by 2030 and has attracted 910 billion baht ($27.12 billion) in semiconductor and advanced electronics investment between 2023 and July 2026.
