CHIBA, Japan–(BUSINESS WIRE)– SII Semiconductor Corporation, fabrikant en verkoper van halfgeleiders, heeft vandaag bekendgemaakt dat het bedrijf op 5 januari 2018 zijn naam verandert in ABLIC Inc.
SII Semiconductor is in september 2015 opgericht.

SII Semiconductor is op dit moment onderverdeeld in een belang van 60 procent voor SII en 40 procent voor de Ontwikkelingsbank van Japan, maar SII draagt 30 procent van zijn belang over aan de Japanse Ontwikkelingsbank. De Ontwikkelingsbank verwerft na januari 2018 een belang van 70 procent.
