MetaOptics expands into Malaysia with incorporation of subsidiary
Mass production and fabrication, volume assembly and testing will sit in proximity in the new facility, enabling shorter development cycles, improved production yields and a faster path from prototyping to commercial-scale mass production.
MetaOptics, a Singapore-based semiconductor optics company, has announced the incorporation of its wholly-owned Malaysian subsidiary, MetaOptics Technologies Sdn. Bhd., with the aim of advancing next-generation optical technologies and strengthening cross-border collaborations with Malaysian supply chain partners in semiconductor manufacturing, integrated photonics and nanophotonics.
It also boosts the company’s global strategy to deliver metalens solutions to customers worldwide, according to a media release.
Mass production and fabrication, volume assembly and testing will sit in proximity in the new facility, enabling shorter development cycles, improved production yields and a faster path from prototyping to commercial-scale mass production, MetaOptics said.
“Malaysia provides an established semiconductor base, a deep process-engineering pool and proximity to customers and suppliers,” said Thng Chong Kim, Executive Chairman of MetaOptics. “The incorporation of MetaOptics Technologies Sdn. Bhd. will enable us to establish the fabrication, assembly and testing capabilities in Malaysia. This will serve the growing metalens industry in the region.”
