Fujitsu and Taiwan's Institute for Information Industry to Partner for WiMAX Application Platforms

(Top News, 5 Dec 2007)


Fujitsu Ltd and the Institute for Information Industry (III) of Taiwan are partnering to establish a new company in Taiwan that will develop application platforms and provide engineering support based on WiMAX technology from Fujitsu and III. Through the joint venture, scheduled to be established in March 2008, it is anticipated that Fujitsu and III will significantly contribute to the development of Taiwan's WiMAX industry.

Leveraging Fujitsu's state-of-the-art WiMAX SoC solutions and III's software technologies, the new joint venture will develop WiMAX application platforms and provide them to ODM vendors in Taiwan. With fully localized engineering support provided by the new company, such platforms will enable ODM vendors to rapidly achieve mass production of attractive and competitive WiMAX equipment. Since numerous global brand equipment vendors are using Taiwanese ODM vendors as manufacturing partners, it is expected that application platforms and localized engineering support provided by the new company will spur the rapid growth of the global WiMAX industry.

The new joint venture's initial target applications will include mobile WiMAX handsets, and femto/pico base stations. Such application platforms will be delivered to ODM vendors in Taiwan to shorten the time-to-market and help them to bring up their WiMAX products to the worldwide customers quickly.

The Taiwan government has been playing an important role in the M-Taiwan Project to promote the development of the WiMAX industry in Taiwan. The research and development projects under the M-Taiwan Project are conducted by III, other research institutes and several private companies.
