Navigating Key Legal Challenges in the Semiconductor Industry | SIPAC X Chance Bridge

The rapid evolution of the global semiconductor industry, coupled with increasing geopolitical tensions and evolving export controls, has created a complex legal landscape. Don’t miss this insightful webinar presented by Greg Harris, a semiconductor law expert who formerly served as a senior in-house counsel at Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), and previously a senior associate at the Hsinchu office of Lee & Li, Taiwan’s oldest and largest law firm, where he worked mainly with clients in the semiconductor industry.

Drawing from years of frontline experience, Greg will provide practical guidance on two critical legal focus areas:

Procurement Contract Negotiations: With semiconductor tools being massively expensive and rapidly depreciating, the timing of deliveries is critical. Greg will share negotiation strategies to help purchasers gain optimal control over delivery schedules while navigating the extraordinary leverage of suppliers.

Managing Export Control Risks: Changing export regulations can significantly disrupt commercial chip and equipment supply agreements. Older contracts often lack clear provisions addressing such disruptions. Greg will offer advice on contract review, leveraging force majeure clauses, protecting rights through dispute mechanisms, and ensuring new agreements reflect current industry standards.

As a legal expert with a rare combination of in-house and private practice experience at semiconductor giants, Greg provides invaluable insights into navigating the intricate legal maze in this critical industry.
