Elpida and Taiwanese DRAM makers in tie-up talks

26.12.2008

Earlier this month the German state of Saxony came to the rescue of DRAM-maker Qimonda with plans to offer a €150 million (US$203 million) loan on the condition that the company's majority stock holder, Infineon Technologies, matches the investment. The Taiwanese government also said it would help the country's five major chip makers.
