Apple, Qualcomm, and Tesla are all hiring for EMIB-class advanced packaging, signalling an industry shift toward tech where Intel holds a structural edge.
Intel’s “packaging-first” strategy outlined last year is now visible in real customer activity; foundry share will be won through packaging long before leading-edge wafers.
With TSMC carrying excess capacity, IFS enters a rare window where early 18A traction and EMIB pull-through can create a credible path to 14A volume wins.
