Since its inception in December 1989, Macronix has been a leading provider of innovative customer/ application-driven non-volatile memory, and is now directing its efforts to become a customer application-driven system solution by mixing flash technologies with digital/analog function blocks for computing, communication, and consumer markets.

Over the course of the last 16 years, Macronix established remarkable world-class first tier accounts in Japan, United States, Europe, and Asia Pacific with respected companies such as HP, Leapfrog, LG, Minolta, Nintendo, Palm, Philips, Samsung, Sony, Thomson, Yamaha, and others.

It was the youngest company in Taiwan to be listed in Taiwan Stock Exchange and the first company in Taiwan to be listed in NASDAQ in the United States. Key to the company's success has been its ability to form win-win strategic partnerships not only in the early stages of product development and manufacturing of its 6-inch and 8-inch wafer fabs, but also extending all the way through its marketing and sales channels.
