Riding on the boom of handset and system display manufacturing at home, Korea´s fabless semiconductor industry has made a sharp increase by leaps and bounds. The sales revenue of the fabless semiconductor companies nearly tripled to US SI.58 billion in 2006, compared to US $545 million in 2003. Marking an annual average growth of 42 percent, the industry is now around the corner of global jump: by overcoming such issues as a broad range of portfolio set-up, business volume expansion through M&A, market diversification, etc.
