Synopsis
A Chip Odyssey chronicles Taiwan’s rise as a semiconductor powerhouse. Through high-stakes decisions and global uncertainty, it tells the story of engineers, leaders, and visionaries—half a century ago—who gambled on chips and reshaped not only the future of technology, but the fate of Taiwan itself. It is not just a story about semiconductors; it is a story of an island’s struggle for survival, and the difficult path Taiwan has taken to secure its place in the world.
