New Delhi [India], March 10: Cutting-edge technology, skilled talent, substantial investments, and robust global supply chain integration play a pivot in India’s dream to be a self-reliant nation and emerge as a global semiconductor manufacturing hub. Recognizing the critical role of international cooperation in bridging technological gaps, attracting investments, and driving innovation, IESA and GSEM successfully hosted high-impact country specific roundtables with 180 foreign delegates during the recently held IESA Vision Summit and Gujarat Semiconnect event at Gandhinagar, inaugurated by Hon’ble Chief Minister Shri Bhupendrabhai Patel of Gujarat.
Recognizing the critical role of international cooperation in semiconductor sector, IESA has proactively made strategic cooperations with global trade bodies, Embassies, leaders across USA, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, Sweden, Korea, UK and more. The detailed report of Indo-Dutch semiconductor opportunities was released last year by IESA. Additionally, IESA has partnered with SEMI, which represents over 3,500 global members, further strengthening India’s position in the global semiconductor ecosystem.
Speaking on the success of the roundtable discussions with seven countries, Mr. Ashok Chandak, President of IESA, emphasized that India’s semiconductor aspirations cannot be achieved in isolation. He highlighted that international collaboration is crucial for accelerating technological advancements, attracting investments, strengthening supply chains, and developing a skilled workforce. By forging strategic partnerships with global players, India is well-positioned to become a key force in the global semiconductor landscape, driving sustainable growth and self-reliance in this vital sector, he added.
During these seven countries round tables (Separate country sessions with India teams ) 350 participants took parts to discuss the below points:
- Technology Transfer and Knowledge Sharing
- Strengthening the Semiconductor Supply Chain : Materials, Minerals, equipments, Services, chemicals, Gases, etc.
- Attracting Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and Joint Ventures: Captive plants, JV;s, technology partnerships.
- Policy and Regulatory Framework Alignment : standards and IP protection frameworks, policy benchmarking, global semiconductor alliances .
- Workforce Development and Talent Exchange: skilling programs and semiconductor-specific curriculum, talent exchange programs, workforce in VLSI design, fabrication, and semiconductor physics.
- Geopolitical and Strategic Alliances: bilateral agreements, Position India as an alternative manufacturing hub, international funding and semiconductor trade agreements.
The strong participation and travel of delegates for the event reflect the growing interest of global players in India’s growth story and their confidence in Indian companies for joint ventures and technology transfers. This momentum signals that India is on the path to achieving significant progress and success in the semiconductor and technology ecosystem in the near future.
