Epistar Corp., Taiwan’s leading LED chipmaker, has formed an alliance with Delta Electronics Inc. to enhance their presence in the LED lighting market. Delta has committed to purchasing Epistar’s chips, leveraging its own R&D team to collaborate on new lighting product formats. Industry analysts suggest that Delta may fill two vacant seats on Epistar’s board, reflecting its aggressive strategy to invest in the LED sector, particularly with its stakes in Helio Optoelectronics and Edison Opto Corp. Delta has recently launched 14 LED luminaires, securing orders from the U.S. and Europe, which signals its intent to capture a larger share of the global LED market. With Epistar generating significant revenue and operating multiple epitaxy-wafer factories, the partnership presents a strategic investment opportunity for Delta.
