TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company) founded by Morris Chang in 1987 after he was passed by to be CEO of Texas Instrument

Every generation needs a revolution - an entrepreneurial revolution

TSMC is one of the top 20 companies in current times, with total resources nearing trillions.   In a way they control the world, and probably one reason why China wants to invade Taiwan.   

From being a failure to pass PhD at MIT,  Morris Chang became a worker at Texas Instrument.  He eventually became a VP for semiconductor at Texas Instrument.  At 55, he resigned from TI to head Taiwan's semiconductor factor y.  And never looked back.

TSMC has end to end facility:   design and manufacturing of microchips.  

They left behind some of the US biggies in semicon:   AMD and  Intel.

There are many Filipino execs expatriate who have worked at Semicon.  Can we have our own Morris Chang?

Why has Intel, the company formerly headed by Andrew Grove lagged in the microchip competition

Every generation needs a revolution - an entrepreneurial revolution

My favorite books before were those written by Andrew Grove, the outstanding CEO of intel.  Its departure from the Philippines probably marked its decline.

How come Intel is not in the top 20 of semiconductors despite having an outstanding list of CEOs.?

Probably they need Andrew Grove to lead it again, or somebody ape Andrew Grove.  The video said that
the innovation at Intel failed to be in the  developing markets:    crypto mining, gaming, AI, GPU
