INTEL CORPORATION: 1968 – 1997 Synopsis: This case traces the strategic decisions of Intel Corporation which defined its evolution from being a start-up developer of semiconductor memory chips in 1968 to being the industry leader of microprocessors in 1997 when it ranked amongst the top five American companies and had stock market valuation of USD 113 billion. Intel in DRAM business: The strategies employed by Intel for DRAM business focussed on: 1. Pushing the envelope of product design

in 1968‚ the company strategy was to "push the envelope of product design and to be the first to market with the newest devices." By 1973‚ the company had the world’s best selling semiconductor product (1103 DRAM chip). From 1979 into the 1980’s the industry began to change as competition became fierce and the PC market began to take hold. Intel executives later made a dramatic decision to exit the DRAM business and focus resources on the Intel invented microprocessors. In January 1997‚ Intel was

Moore left Fairchild Semiconductor International to form a new company. They took with them a young chemical engineer‚ Andrew Grove‚ and called the new firm Intel‚ short for integrated electronics. The company successfully made money by manufacturing computer memory modules. The company produced the first microprocessor (also called a “chip”) in 1971.

Intel was successful at the beginning because of their “Goldlocks strategy”‚ which they focused on mass production and something that competitors cannot copy easily. Because of this approach Intel was able to produce 1103‚ world’s first 1 kilobit DRAM. The 1103 was more cost effective to build‚ smaller and better in performance. The 1103 DRAM was able to replace
