The new facility is located on UTokyo’s Asano campus in the Hongo district and marks TSMC’s first laboratory collaboration with a university outside of Taiwan.

A Strategic Industrial/Academic Collaboration Agreement was signed in April 2025 to systematize and promote this partnership further, concurrently launching a Social Cooperation Program at UTokyo.
