VEIndia’s semiconductor talent push is gaining serious momentum. According to Ashwini Vaishnaw, the country has already trained over 67,000 semiconductor engineers in just four years, far exceeding initial expectations.
Speaking at Qualcomm’s India office in Bengaluru, Vaishnaw said the talent pipeline built under Semicon 1.0 has moved much faster than planned. The original target was to train 85,000 professionals over 10 years, but nearly 80% of that goal has been achieved in less than half the time.
With India Semiconductor Mission 2.0, the government will now shift focus toward advanced chip design, followed by equipment and materials, while further strengthening end-to-end system design skills among students.
The next phase will also work toward attracting more fabrication plants and expanding ATMP (assembly, testing, marking, and packaging) facilities, strengthening India’s position in the global semiconductor value chain.
