R&D Spending: A Tale of Two Giants

In the ever-evolving world of technology, research and development (R&D) spending is a key indicator of a company's commitment to innovation. Over the past decade, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSMC) and Keysight Technologies, Inc. have demonstrated contrasting approaches to R&D investment.

A Decade of Growth

From 2014 to 2024, TSMC's R&D expenses have skyrocketed by over 250%, reaching a staggering $204 billion in 2024. This reflects TSMC's strategic focus on maintaining its leadership in semiconductor manufacturing. In contrast, Keysight Technologies has steadily increased its R&D spending by approximately 155%, reaching $919 million in 2024. This growth underscores Keysight's dedication to advancing its electronic measurement solutions.

The Innovation Race

While TSMC's R&D budget dwarfs that of Keysight, both companies have shown a consistent upward trend in their investments. This commitment to innovation is crucial in maintaining their competitive edge in their respective industries.
