Intel Corporation is the world's largest semiconductor chip manufacturer.
Founded in 1968, it has 38 years of history in production innovation and market
leadership. In 1971, Intel launched the world's first microprocessor. This
achievement not only changed the future of Intel, but also had a profound and
far-reaching impact on the entire industry. The microprocessor enabled the
computer and Internet revolution that changed the world.
 Intel supplies the computing and
communications industries with microprocessors, chipsets, boards, systems, and
software building blocks that are the "ingredients" of computer architecture
and the Internet. These products are used by industry members to create
advanced computing and communications systems to the end users.
Today, the digital economy is directing the information industry developing
towards 3C convergence, i.e., the convergence of computing, communications and
consumer electronics. As a world-leading company in information industry, Intel
is committed to integrating all resources to drive the development of complete
technology platforms based on Intel ingredient components. "Intel is putting
the people and resources in place to sharpen our focus on the development of
platforms that meet the demands of our customers and provide innovative and
exciting new technologies for the marketplace," said Paul Otellini, Intel
president and CEO. "The new organization will help address growth opportunities
by better anticipating and addressing market needs, speeding decision making,
and ensuring world-class operational excellence. Each operating unit has the
autonomy to allocate computing and communications resources to be successful,
making Intel's entire structure consistent with our platform products
strategy."

Intel's strategic focus in China is the same to its strategic vision worldwide,
being a preeminent building block and platform supplier to the worldwide
digital economy. Furthermore, Intel has carried out extensive and close
cooperation with local industries to be the cornerstone to boost the
information technology and communications development in China. Intel is also
committed itself to be the good corporate citizen in China.

Intel's cooperation with local industries endorsed the company's commitment to
Chinese market. Since its entry into China in 1985, Intel has over 6,000
employees on assembly and test research and development and sales and marketing
in 16 cities in Mainland China including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou,
Shenzhen, Chengdu, Chongqing, Shenyang, Jinan, Fuzhou, Nanjing, Xi'an, Harbin,
Zhengzhou, Kunming, Urumqi and Wuhan.

Intel's largest site in China is Shanghai, where the company currently operates
three campuses.
Established in 1996, Intel Products (Shanghai) Ltd. is Intel's first assembly
and testing facility in China which is located in Waigaoqiao Free Trade Zone of
Shanghai Pudong New Area. In 2005, a R&D facility Intel Technology
Development (SH) Ltd setup in the same campus, which further demonstrate
Intel's commitment to support local technology development.
There are three factories in Pudong, namely flash memory device, chipset and
CPU factory. The facility provides the world's top assembly and testing
services for flash memory chips, chipsets, PentiumŪ 4 processors and the most
advanced Due Core microprocessor with 65 nanometer technology and other high
performance chips that are used all over the world. The Shanghai facility is
now handling 300mm wafers for the first time in China and is assembling and
testing products constructed with Intel's leading edge 65 nanometer technology.
By now, the facility has over 3,500 employees, and has cultivated a great
number of knowledge workers that master the world-class chip assembly and test
technology. The facility also becomes one of the most valued export bases (in
dollars) in Shanghai. The R&D groups are doing some technology development,
focusing on Flash silicon design, Chip package development, and Digital Home
system development.
At Shanghai Mart in Changning District, Intel employees are engaged in sales,
marketing, and administration.
Intel's third campus in Shanghai is located in Zizhu Science-based Industrial
Park in Minhang District. It is the home for Intel Asia-Pacific Research and
Development Ltd., a full-scale R&D facility focusing on product development
and platform-level innovations from all major Intel product and technology
groups, including Software and Solution Group, Digital Home Group, Digital
Enterprise Group, Mobility Group, Digital Health Group and Information Services
& Technology Group. The campus is also the headquarters of Intel's Channel
Platforms Group (CPG). This is the first time that Intel has headquartered a
corporate business unit outside of the U. S. CPG's charter is to expand Intel's
worldwide presence by accelerating global channel growth through innovative
business models and platform solutions tailored to meet local market needs. In
addition, one of Intel's four platform definition centers (PDC) is also located
in Intel Zizhu campus. These definition centers identify environmental
considerations and marketplace requirements specific to each geographic region
in order to define locally relevant computing solutions based on IntelŪ
technology.

In August 2003, Intel announced to construct a semiconductor assembly and test
facility in Chengdu Hi-Tech Industrial Development Zone in Sichuan Province.
Intel Products (Chengdu) Ltd. was established to execute the project and
operate the facility. In March 2005, Intel announced additional investment to
construct Phase II factory, a state of the art model facility to assemble and
test Intel's most advanced microprocessors. The first factory is in full
operation now to produce chipset. The Chengdu facility is not only an integral
part of Intel's global semiconductor assembly and testing facilities network,
but also demonstrates Intel's commitment to China in terms of growing the local
market, workforce development as well as to supporting the country's agenda of
the "Go West" Campaign. As the company grows and develops its people,
particular attention is paid to developing local leaders into global leaders by
providing practical leadership and management opportunities that will enable
them to work in cross cultural teams and impact the entire virtual factory.
