Inside the story

As of mid-September 2024, Rapidus's IIM fab near New Chitose Airport in Chitose, Hokkaido, was more than 50% complete, less than six months before the start of its cutting-edge prototype line, inside a project whose total cost is estimated at up to ¥5 trillion and whose promised return is over ¥18 trillion (about $120 billion) in cumulative economic windfall through fiscal 2036. This analysis reads the halfway mark as a regional industrial-policy test: Hokkaido's third-highest land-price rise in 2024 and ASML's ~25-person Chitose office as the first measurable evidence, and an ordered set of gates — 2-nanometer samples by July 2025, mass production in 2027, cost discipline — as the tests that would confirm or break the windfall thesis.

FROM THE ORIGINAL STORY
In mid-September 2024, the shell of the IIM fab rising near New Chitose Airport in Chitose, on the northern island of Hokkaido, passed a threshold that few frontier semiconductor projects reach on schedule: more than 50% complete, with less than six months to go before the start of its cutting-edge semiconductor prototype line. The progress report, as Nikkei Asia reported , arrived wrapped in a number far larger than the building itself: a projected cumulative economic windfall of more than…
