意法半导体(ST)长期以来一直是中国半导体市场的领导者,上个世纪80年代中期,意法半导体在北京设立了第一个办事处,成为第一批在中国设立营业机构的半导体公司之一。从那时起,意法半导体在中国逐步建确立了完整产业链的战略部署,不仅设立了非常成功的市场销售部门,还建立了重要的生产制造基地,同时积极开展满足中国本地需求的设计和研发活动。今天,意法半导体大中国区共有员工4200余人,其中1000多名专门从事设计、技术支持和市场销售工作。自1999年起,意法半导体在中国这个潜力巨大的市场中成绩斐然,销售额得到了稳步增长,公司年复合增长率高达31%,而中国半导体行业的年复合增长率为24%,相比同期全球半导体行业年复合增长率为7%。中国市场预计在五年内将占有全球半导体市场份额的五分之一。在多媒体、数字消费电子、通信和工业应用方面,意法半导体实力雄厚,非常符合中国市场的需求。
由于解决方案本地化对于中国消费者变得日益重要,ST在北京、上海、深圳建立了多家技术资格中心,针对数字消费多媒体、影像、显示、无线、网络和智能卡等各种应用,配备了从事参考解决方案的设计开发、技术支持及合作开发项目的各类专业技术工程师。这几家技术资格中心补充了ST在世界其它地区的现有技术资格中心的实力,使公司能够调配其全球资源和各种先进技术,以满足中国市场的特殊本地需求。
为进一步承诺并服务于中国市场,公司于2005年在中国创立了全新的大中国区,该地区机构负责中国大陆、香港和台湾三地的业务,并任命一名公司副总裁专门管理这个组织机构。大中国区的成立是ST为在这个经济增长最快的地区继续取得成功而迈出的关键一步。

ST Journal Publisher' words
Several years ago, when we decided to create this journal, we had a clear vision.
We didn't want a "look-mom-how-good-we-are" magazine; we didn't want an advertising tool; we didn't want an academic exercise. We wanted to fulfill a dream we had had since the founding of Advanced System Technology: to develop world-class knowledge and share it inside and outside of STMicroelectronics, hoping to attract even further contributions from partners, institutions, academia. This journal is a first effort in this direction.
As with any newborn, ours is still largely unprepared for the expectations that we, his parents, have for him. It is, however, willing to learn, to grow fast, and to outperform even the highest expectations. Because no one can grow or learn alone, we are counting on all of you to criticize, correct, and contribute. A learning journey requires teachers and friends, and these are what we ask all of you to be. Our success is also yours, and we want to offer and develop a forum where new ideas are exposed, exchanged, and challenged.
