Electronics maker Pegatron becomes latest company to open a new US office｜Taiwan News

Taiwanese electronics manufacturer Pegatron has become the latest company to open a new office in the US. The move comes amid American President Donald Trump’s threats to impose heavy tariff policies. The main reason for Pegatron’s new office in California’s Silicon Valley is to provide services to customers nearby. For example, Nvidia’s headquarters are just a two-minute walk across the street. Pegatron Chair Tung Tzu-hsien says his company’s activities in North America are bound to increase. This is a new American office from Pegatron. Pegatron Chair Tung Tzu-hsien attended the opening ceremony in person and gave a big thumbs up. Yang Szu-min FTV reporter Here at Pegatron’s new office in the US, there aren’t just computer rooms, but also a showroom and display area. The office displays a series of Pegatron products, from AI servers to related 5G communication products. Pegatron chose to locate the office in the heart of the tech industry district in Santa Clara. Taiwanese companies TSMC, Quanta Computer and Mediatek all have bases here. Nvidia’s headquarters is 160m across the street, and electric car giant Tesla is also not far away. Needless to say there are many start-ups here too. Cheng Kuang-chih Pegatron president Our next-door neighbor is Nvidia, the hottest company in the industry, so of course we are here, we have a geographical advantage. Tung Tzu-hsien Pegatron chair For example, if there is a technical issue on a server opposite us, frankly speaking I can just jog over there and have a face-to-face conversation in 10 minutes. Being at this point in Silicon Valley, of course our activities in North America will increase, and I expect even more in the future. As for whether Pegatron will set up production lines locally in response to US President Trump’s push for manufacturing to be in the US, Tung did not make a definitive statement. Tung Tzu-hsien Pegatron Chair (In the past) more people ventured west from Taiwan, often flying to the Pearl River Delta and the Yangtze River Delta. Perhaps in the future, manufacturing will move from the left to the right. Cheng Kuang-chih Pegatron president In our discussions, actually nothing has been finalized yet. There are several scenarios that are all being evaluated. Pegatron executives say the company already has a maintenance base in Indiana, US, and once the decision is made to convert it into a production line, it can be done very quickly. As for California, it is positioned as a relay station between Taiwan, North America and Mexico that can provide closer services to local customers with a zero time difference. Yang Szu-min FTV reporter Pegatron’s new US office is located directly opposite Nvidia’s headquarters, just a two-minute walk away. They have finally decided to settle in the heart of California’s Silicon Valley to prepare for future business.
