Penang chief minister Chow Kon Yeow trying on a VR headset which allows GlobalFoundries engineers to manage its factories around the world remotely.
The 16,000 sq ft “remote control tower” facility enables the group to manage five of its worldwide factories remotely from an office space in Bayan Baru, and will be run by some 300 technicians and engineers. He said the remote control concept was conceptualised at the height of the pandemic when engineers were able to control their factories remotely by using their tablet computers.
Chief minister Chow Kon Yeow said GlobalFoundries’s move to set up the facility in Penang would further strengthen its role in the chip industry, which is poised to hit US$1 trillion by 2030.
