Semiconductors

Moving talent with the right skills to the right locations at the right moment—and moving them out again—is an operation that requires flawless precision.

Multiple crises—from supply-chain bottlenecks, to international geopolitical conflict, to the global pandemic—have made that operation even more complex for the semiconductor industry, demanding ever-faster moves to reposition workers and preserve productivity.

In midst of all this complexity, we strive to embody the precision, persistence and commitment that sets the semiconductor industry apart. Fragomen helps manufacturers, suppliers and service providers respond to unexpected challenges, with our legal professionals helping to design immigration programs that attract talent, manage crisis and build value.

 

Semiconductor Industry Experience

As a firm, our commitment to the semiconductor industry is second to none. We have a deep bench of Partners who are significantly invested in the sector—both at the policy level and with clients. Our dedicated Semiconductor Industry Practice Group meets on a bi-weekly basis to discuss industry trends, legal strategies and confidential industry benchmarking—all with the goal of ensuring our clients remain competitive amongst peers and that we are employing the very best immigration and global mobility strategies. We are also actively involved in the Global Semiconductor Alliance (GSA), the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) and Canada’s Semiconductor Council, which offers additional opportunities for our firm to stay abreast of key industry happenings.  By leveraging our experience and understanding of this industry, we can provide our clients with guidance on best practices in immigration policies and programs.

 

Clients value us for:

Our Global Presence

Geopolitical and economic forces compel the industry to consider opportunities outside of traditional manufacturing centers. Fragomen’s presence in nearly every country and territory across the globe helps our clients make strategic moves quickly and efficiently.

 

Bespoke Integration

From the largest industry players tackling ramps of hundreds of workers, to smaller manufacturers and suppliers seeking an edge through competitive immigration programs, every bracket of the industry relies on Fragomen for thoughtful advice tailored to their needs.

 

Supply Chain Coverage

We support the unique immigration needs of suppliers, manufacturers and everyone in between. Our speed, flexibility and hard-won experience allows us to extend programs to include our clients’ contractors and guest workers on a temporary or long-term basis.

 

Embedded Intelligence

Our client teams embed securely and seamlessly within our clients’ organizations, reducing administrative burdens and making immigration programs more efficient.

 

Respect for Authority

We negotiate with government agencies around the world—from national to municipal levels. Clients depend on the relationships we’ve formed with these government agencies to avoid bureaucratic obstacles, plan moves accurately and enrich the employee experience.

 

Crisis Management

The world is an unpredictable place, roiled by conflict and threats to public health. We work tirelessly to help clients move their workforce out of harm’s way as quickly and safely as possible. Specifically, during the pandemic shutdown, we were instrumental in securing critical worker status for semiconductor industry personnel.

 

Consular Clarity

Our unique consular practice squeezes the most efficient results out of the most unpredictable part of the immigration process: consular review.

 

Industry Advocacy

As a firm, our commitment to the semiconductor industry is second to none. We are a proud member of the Semiconductor Industry Association and the Global Semiconductor Alliance—leading voices in your industry. We have a deep bench of Partners who are significantly invested in the sector—both at the policy level and with clients. We partner with you to make your voice heard in the most consequential immigration debates. Our thought leadership has influenced decision-making in Washington and capitals around the world.

 

Strategic Advice and Policy Development

Market potential, tax policy, political stability—dozens of concerns play into cross-border business planning. Immigration policy is just as important. We ensure that clients don’t suffer unexpected surprises when they move their workforce to new jurisdictions.

 

Data that Matters

Because we represent the lion’s share of players in the semiconductor industry, we have vast, sector-specific data at our disposal. Our benchmarking and trend analysis capabilities help our clients reach their goals—and imagine new ones.
