The Asia Pacific semiconductor silicon wafer market was valued at US$ 9,157.03 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 13,690.32 million by 2031; it is estimated to register a CAGR of 5.2% from 2023 to 2031.
Government Initiatives for Semiconductor Industry Growth Boost Asia Pacific Semiconductor Silicon Wafer Market
Supply shortages of semiconductors can lead to difficulties in the production of multiple electronic devices, which results in governments of various countries worldwide taking several initiatives to boost semiconductor production. Furthermore, in March 2024, the Government of India approved a significant investment in the semiconductor and electronics manufacturing industry, including the country's first cutting-edge semiconductor fab. It includes the construction of three plants: one semiconductor fab and two packaging and testing facilities. For this project, the government has allocated US$ 15.2 billion (1.26 trillion Indian rupees). Thus, the growing number of initiatives in the semiconductor industry is expected to offer lucrative opportunities for the growth of the Asia Pacific semiconductor silicon wafer market during the forecasted period.
Asia Pacific Semiconductor Silicon Wafer Market Overview
Asia Pacific is home to pioneering 5G markets, such as Australia, Japan, Singapore, and South Korea, where the technology has become mainstream. The region has a few of the fastest-growing 5G markets, such as India, which is set to expand tens of millions of 5G connections in 2023. Per the Global System for Mobile Communications (GSMC), by the end of 2030, there will be ~1.4 billion 5G connections in Asia Pacific, equivalent to 41% of total mobile connections. In mobile manufacturing, the semiconductor silicon wafer is used for the fabrication of integrated circuits.
Thus, the rise in semiconductor manufacturing and a surge in the penetration of mobile and telecommunication fuel the growth of the market in Asia Pacific.
