- Germany’s semiconductor market is expected to grow to about 3.5 trillion yen by 2030.
Overview
electronica is a trade fair covering the electronics industry as a whole, including electronic components, semiconductors, sensors, MEMS, power electronics, and embedded systems. SEMICON Europa, one of Europe’s largest semiconductor-related exhibitions, is held alongside it. Major companies, leading buyers, and industry professionals from around the world gather to present technologies and market trends. Held every two years, the 2024 event had more than 3,000 exhibitors and over 80,000 visitors.
Germany is Europe’s largest electronics market and producer, and about one quarter of domestic research and development spending goes to this sector. It accounts for one third of all semiconductor production in Europe. The government is attracting companies and strengthening production capacity and regional supply chains through subsidies under the EU Chips Act and regional clusters.
Impact
Through its exhibitor support, JETRO will promote collaboration between Japanese companies in the electronics industry and overseas companies, particularly in Europe. At this exhibition, it aims to showcase Japanese companies’ unique technologies to the world, strengthen ties with global supply chains, and create new business opportunities.
