Data as of 2026-09-05 · checklist for operators and investors evaluating a vendor or a graph name · facts are from companies.json and counted edges · questions are unanswered on purpose
What they do
- Highest-volume smartphone SoC vendor; strong in TV and connectivity chips.
- Primary segment: Design (Fabless) / Mobile SoC.
- Key products in the dataset: Dimensity SoCs, smart TV SoCs.
- Market position in that segment: leader.
Role in the chain
- MediaTek is a market leader in Design (Fabless) (Mobile SoC), headquartered in Taiwan. Highest-volume smartphone SoC vendor; strong in TV and connectivity chips.
- Ask: On the step you actually buy, is this company the process owner, a second source, or a distributor? The segment label is not a substitute for that answer.
Counterparties on the graph
- Tracked suppliers: 68. Tracked customers: 1.
- Named suppliers (first 8): Arm Holdings, ASE Technology, Cadence Design Systems, eMemory Technology, Samsung Electronics, Synopsys, TSMC, Unimicron.
- Named customers (first 1): Samsung Electronics.
- Ask: Which of those edges are in a filing or a primary-source quote, and which are segment-inferred? Do not treat the two as the same fact.
Concentration and replaceability
Operator section
- MediaTek itself is a leader in its primary segment.
- 9 of the tracked suppliers are a monopoly or leader: Arm Holdings, ASE Technology, Cadence Design Systems, eMemory Technology, Samsung Electronics, Synopsys.
- Ask: If the named monopoly or leader supplier stopped shipping, is there a qualified second source on that process step? If the dataset does not name one, do not assume one exists.
Geography and jurisdiction
- Headquarters country in the dataset: Taiwan.
- Ask: Where do the fabs, plants or logistics nodes actually sit, versus the HQ country on this record? This dataset records headquarters, not every site.
Public-markets facts (only what is on the record)
Investor section
- Public company, ticker TWSE:2454. A live market cap is on the company profile; this pack does not restate it as a diligence conclusion.
- Ask: What does the latest reported period (if any) say about capacity, backlog and customer concentration? If the company page has no revenue figure, that number is not in this dataset.
Operator checklist
Operator section
- Ask: The dataset records 68 tracked suppliers for MediaTek. Which of those edges are researched (named in a filing or primary source) versus segment-inferred, and what happens if one of them stops shipping?
- Ask: 9 of MediaTek's tracked suppliers are a monopoly or leader (including Arm Holdings, ASE Technology, Cadence Design Systems, eMemory Technology). Which of those are actually single-source for the process step you care about?
- Ask: The dataset names 1 tracked customer for MediaTek. How concentrated is demand among those names, and which of them have a documented second source in this graph?
- Ask: MediaTek is positioned as a leader in Design (Fabless). How replaceable is this vendor on the process step you are buying?
- Ask: MediaTek is headquartered in Taiwan. What jurisdiction, export-control or logistics risk sits at that HQ, versus at the fabs or plants the filings actually name?
Investor checklist
Investor section
- Ask: Is the graph position (monopoly / leader / major / challenger / niche) the thing you are underwriting, or a product line the one-liner does not cover?
- Ask: Which named customers in this graph could switch, and which named suppliers could not be replaced in a year? Count only names this dataset actually lists.
- Ask: What is not in this dataset — site-level capacity, contract terms, revenue split by customer — that you still need from a filing or a call?
