Analysis
Tokyo Shoko Research says Japan's domestic chip-related makers hit a five-year revenue high in FY2025, driven by expanding generative-AI and data-center demand. The figure offers an answer to whether the AI boom is turning into real money—at least upstream, in chips and equipment, demand is showing up in revenue. For readers invested in Japan's tech and semiconductor supply chain, it is a positive signal, but record revenue isn't universal profit—watch margins and order visibility too. Watch how long this AI-driven demand lasts.
