The global semiconductor landscape continues to evolve as companies within the industry face significant new cost risks, potential relocation pressures and talent shortages.
This rapidly changing global environment is reinforcing the critical importance of agile workforce planning, cross-border talent deployment and immigration foresight, especially for companies navigating:
- Investment incentives in the U.S., EU and Japan
- Increasing localisation requirements
- STEM and R&D talent shortages across Asia and North America
- Security-sensitive regulatory environments
As a result, semiconductor businesses are rethinking global mobility models and workforce strategy underscored by both the talent landscape and supply chain pressures.
Why This Matters Now
With $52.7 billion in U.S. semiconductor subsidies already in play, and a global reshoring race underway, talent mobility has become a competitive edge. Global mobility, HR, and TA teams have a unique opportunity to drive value by:
- Identifying future-ready locations for skilled R&D and fab workers
- Avoiding emergency relocations by pre-modelling workforce risk under different tariff or policy regimes
- Enabling expansion into talent-constrained jurisdictions by navigating immigration, cost and compliance factors early
- Creating resilience in workforce pipelines through scenario-based workforce strategy
- Fragomen’s Semiconductor Industry Group, alongside the firm’s Workforce Intelligence Group, help clients respond with speed and data driven insight.
Whether it’s Taiwan’s growing reliance on overseas STEM talent due to demographic decline, or U.S. visa bottlenecks for chip engineers and researchers, or EU leaders increasingly paying attention to talent investment in European tech companies - semiconductor companies must act with purpose and strategic insight.
Join us to discuss how the broader geopolitical and commercial landscape is impacting mobility in the industry and hear how Fragomen is helping organisations anticipate disruption, reduce cost and lead with agility.
