Chip Consuming Industries Need to Build More Flexibility: Bain & Co.

The video discusses the demand-supply imbalance in the semiconductor industry, driven by robust demand and stable supply. It highlights the challenges in increasing supply due to the time and cost involved in building factories. The video also explores how manufacturers can build flexibility and agility into their production processes to mitigate these challenges. Economic implications, such as the impact on pricing and production constraints, are examined, along with the difficulties in forecasting demand due to macroeconomic fluctuations.
