IC Substrate Expert × AI Adoption Expert

Reading the industrial logic of IC substrates,and bringing AI into factories and research teams.

16 years on the IC substrate manufacturing floor (fab construction planning, capacity allocation, yield) applied to ABF/BT substrates, advanced packaging and the CoWoS supply chain for domestic and foreign fund managers and research teams. I also help manufacturers and research teams adopt AI: production and yield data analysis, document and report automation, AI Agent workflows and training.

Are you still using top talent for machine-level tasks?

In the battleground of capital and commerce, speed and depth determine the winner. Yet, inefficient legacy workflows are draining decision-makers.

⏳

Information Overload

Facing hundreds of pages of earnings call transcripts and reports daily, analysts lose their energy on inefficient data collection instead of high-value logical deduction.

🤖

Lack of Depth

General-purpose AI lacks domain know-how. Its analysis reads like Wikipedia, full of fluff and disclaimers, making it useless for real investment and business decisions.

⛓️

Fragmented Workflows

Buying numerous AI tools without the ability to automatically connect them to internal databases. They devolve into glorified text generators requiring constant copy-pasting.

16 Years on the IC Substrate Floor,
Translated into the Language of Fund Managers

"True insight never comes from piling up massive data; it comes from a profound understanding of the industry's underlying logic."

I am Jerry (Zephyr), founder of Zephyrtech. With 16 years of hands-on experience in the IC substrate industry, I have navigated the technological evolution and supply chain dynamics—from traditional high-end PCB, SLP (Substrate-Like PCB), and fine-pitch mSAP processes to ABF substrates, advanced packaging (CoWoS / EMIB / CoWoP), and Silicon Photonics (CPO). I haven't just observed these shifts from the sidelines; I've been on the manufacturing frontlines. My track record includes greenfield fab construction, direct technical interfacing with tech giants like Intel, and a deep command of next-generation Glass Substrate technology. Having actively resolved countless critical bottlenecks in yield, capacity allocation, and spec upgrades, I understand exactly how technical parameters translate into gross margins and investment alpha.

Core Value: Translating Tech Specs into Investment Alpha

I help the financial sector decode the structural dynamics of PCB substrate-ization and advanced packaging. From micro-level fab bottlenecks (e.g., laser drilling micro-trenches, mSAP fine-pitch limits, laminator lead times, specialized fiberglass shortages) and optical PCB spec upgrades to macro-level global AI server projections, advanced packaging architecture roadmaps (CoWoS / EMIB / CoWoP), and Silicon Photonics (CPO) patent moats, I turn obscure technical news from the fab floor into actionable commercial signals for institutional investors.

Target Audience: Top-Tier Capital Market Decision Makers

My primary clients include domestic and foreign fund managers and buy-side research teams. As a core industry consultant for the world's leading expert networks, GLG and AlphaSights, I bridge the gap between technical complexity and investment logic through deep-dive interviews, industry briefings, and bespoke research.

Tech Enablement: AI-Driven Research Brain

While serving institutional clients, I noticed that financial research is often bogged down by labor-intensive data gathering. To solve this, I merged engineering systems thinking with LLM technology to build a proprietary AI research architecture (Stock Router). It doesn't just parse financial data efficiently; it is hardcoded with semiconductor Domain Know-how, meaning the AI actually understands how the industry generates profit.

AI Adoption: Who I Serve and Where We Start

AI adoption is my secondary service line, for manufacturers and financial research teams. Across 16 years on the IC substrate floor, fab construction planning, capacity allocation and yield troubleshooting produced a constant stream of data, documents and reports. I help factories identify which of those steps AI can take over (production and yield data analysis, document and report automation, AI Agent workflows) and deploy them; for research teams, I deliver AI training and adoption projects built on the Stock Router research workflow.
