SEMI-opbakning til Chips Act 2.0
SEMI Europe bakker op omkring Europa-Kommissionens indledende implementerings-dialog om et kommende Chips Act 2.0 initiativ (in english).
SEMI Europe has participated in the European Commission’s Implementation Dialogue on the Chips Act, chaired by Henna Virkkunen, Executive Vice-President of the European Commission for Tech Sovereignty, Security and Democracy.
As a key association representing the global electronics manufacturing and design supply chain in the region, SEMI Europe commends the European Commission for coordinating the Chips Act 2.0 Report, in consultation with leading semiconductor companies, to help define the future direction of Europe’s semiconductor policy and investment framework.
In this context, the Implementation Dialogue provided a valuable platform to assess progress under the European Chips Act and to gather concrete recommendations for its upcoming revision, commonly referred to as 'Chips Act 2.0'.
SEMI Europe strongly supports this consultative approach, which helps ensure that policy objectives are achieved while minimizing administrative and compliance burden for industry.
- SEMI Europe applauds the European Commission for fostering an open and constructive dialogue with industry at a critical moment for Europe’s semiconductor ecosystem, says Laith Altimime, President of SEMI Europe, and continues:
- Strengthening Europe’s technological leadership and competitiveness requires close collaboration between policymakers and industry. We are pleased to contribute our expertise and insights on behalf of our member companies to support the next phase of the Chips Act.
During the dialogue, SEMI Europe highlighted its significant contribution to the policy discussion through its SEMI Europe Chips Act Report published last year, which outlined 30 recommendations aimed at strengthening Europe’s semiconductor ecosystem across the entire supply chain.
These included regulatory simplification, accelerated permitting processes, targeted investment support, and measures to strengthen the resilience of the semiconductor supply chain.
SEMI, with its global footprint of over 3,000 members worldwide from across the entire semiconductor value chain, will remain a trusted partner to facilitate global collaboration and support the success of the European Chips Act and its potential '2.0'.
