As India continues to establish itself as a rising player in the global chipmaking ecosystem, KLA India is demonstrating its support for the local semiconductor industry with a significant presence at the first SEMICON India 2024.

Themed as “Shaping the semiconductor future,” the expo takes place during a time of exploding demand in India for mobile, automotive, electronics and data storage needs that continue to drive technology advances in the semiconductor industry.

“KLA is looking forward to the rise of India as a global semiconductor manufacturing hub.”

Dominic David, president, KLA India

India is well on its way to establishing a vibrant semiconductor manufacturing ecosystem, with the region’s chip market projected by Deloitte to reach $55 billion by 2026 and multiple top-industry customers investing in the region with new projects.

SEMICON India brings local and global semiconductor industry stakeholders under one roof to accelerate potent connections and explore solutions for the challenges needed to make rapid progress to drive innovation and growth.
