In this class, we will discuss the union between the two main industries of Kyushu: the
semiconductor industry and the automobile industry. The close mutual agreement, or what should be called inter-industry unification, between the semiconductor and automobile industries of Kyushu, as well as the industries related to them, began in the latter half of the 1990's and continues to progress. Thus, this year, we plan on analyzing the manufacturers that constitute the automobile industry of Kyushu, as well as the industries related to the automobile industry. We will also analyze the effects of the entrance of these manufacturers into semiconductor-related industries. |
