In addition, driven by the acceleration of the construction of 5G base stations in various countries, the demand for data centres and artificial intelligence, and since the semiconductor industry as a whole is more resilient than other industries, semiconductor in Taiwan has established itself as an important core in the world, and is expected to continue its growth and to be recognised by the international market.
Besides, Genes Tech Group has submitted a formal application to the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited for the Proposed Transfer of Listing to the Main board in June.

Mr. Yang Ming-Hsiang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer concluded: "In view of the severe epidemics around the world and the subsequent global economic slowdown, the global economy is still under pressure in the short term. The semiconductor market may need a certain period of time to have a full recovery. The Group will continue to pay close attention to the latest development of epidemic and will actively adopt a proactive, rapid and orderly contingency strategy to seize new opportunities in adversity to stabilise our business development. Leveraging on our industry experience over years, coupled with the rigorous requirements for products as always and the timely formulation of strategic development approaches, this will help the Group to enhance our core competitiveness and gradually expand the business footprint, further consolidate our position in the market and create long-term values for our shareholders."
