• TSMC and Sony entered a joint venture to create a $7 billion fab in Japan.
• The fab will focus on producing chips built with the 22 and 28nm processes.
• Chips aren't expected to be mass-produced at the fab until 2024.

Sony and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) announced that they will jointly build a $7 billion fab in Japan. Back in October 2021, TSMC announced plans to build the fab, but the move required board approval. That has since been acquired, and the plan is to have the new fab running by 2024.
