I really wonder where the BBC is getting this information. In their own source IBM declined to speculate on when it might begin commercial manufacturing:
"IBM also declined to speculate on when it might begin commercial manufacturing of this technology generation."
Maybe they mixed it up with the following sentences in their source:
"This year, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) said that it planned to begin pilot product of seven-nanometer chips in 2017. Unlike IBM, however, it has not demonstrated working chips to meet that goal."
