At a Jeju forum media session, SK Group chairman Chey Tae-won said global semiconductor demand will surge next year as AI drives a 60–100% YoY rise in AI-related demand and overall semiconductor demand increases at least 50–60% YoY. He warned new supply next year will be almost zero, risking a wider supply shortfall. After constraints in energy and power equipment, he flagged materials supply and facility construction as potential new bottlenecks — citing shortages and price rises for electrical wire and related materials and tightness in submarine cables. He added that frequent changes in construction specifications are increasing installation difficulty and that a self-sustaining AI industry ecosystem will take time to form despite heavy current infrastructure spending.
