The India Cellular & Electronics Association (ICEA) has unveiled a report to position India as a global leader in semiconductor product design and internet protocol (IP) creation.
The report outlines a strategic blueprint for India’s semiconductor sector, challenges and opportunities facing the industry amidst evolving global geopolitics.
The report highlights a robust design ecosystem for India’s semiconductor industry, advocating for strategic support for semiconductor design firms, bridging the skill gap through industry-oriented curricula and training programs, and enhancing funding mechanisms to support semiconductor design ecosystem.
It also mentions the importance of leveraging global opportunities, particularly in advanced semiconductor manufacturing, and advocates for government investment in refurbished fabs to support design firms and foster a skilled workforce.
According to Pankaj Mohindroo, chairman, ICEA, there is a need for unified action across government, industry, and academia to propel India into a leadership position in the global semiconductor arena.
