The TSMC Open Innovation Platform® promotes the speedy implementation of innovation amongst the semiconductor design community, its ecosystem partners and TSMC's IP, design implementation and design for manufacturing (DFM) capabilities, process technology and backend services. A key element of the Open Innovation Platform® is a set of ecosystem interfaces and collaborative components initiated and supported by TSMC that more efficiently empower innovation throughout the supply chain and that drive the creation and sharing of newly-created revenue and profits. TSMC's Active Accuracy Assurance (AAA) initiative is critical to the Open Innovation Platform, providing the accuracy and quality required by the ecosystem interfaces and collaborative components.

The Open Innovation Platform® is the substantiation of TSMC's Open Innovation model that brings together the thinking of customers and partners under the common goal of shortening design time, minimizing time-to-volume and speeding time-to-market, and ultimately time-to-money.

The Open Innovation Platform® is hosted by TSMC and built on the company's design-enabling building blocks and an ecosystem interface, the Open Innovation Platform® is available to customers and ecosystem partners to improve time-to-market, and increase return on investment, and reduce waste.
