India’s $18 Billion Chip Bet: What’s at Stake
India aims to become a key player in the global semiconductor industry through its “Semiconductor Mission,” approving multiple projects with billions in investment. The plan focuses on building a comprehensive domestic supply chain, attracting fabrication, testing, and packaging facilities. While India possesses a large pool of engineering talent, experts caution that inconsistent progress and insufficient investment, compounded with challenges related to infrastructure, talent retention, and IP protections, may hinder the realization of its ambition. The country needs a dynamic ecosystem beyond just incentives to attract and retain major investments.
