Next SEMICON India Edition Planned for March 2028
SEMICON India is a large event about making and designing computer chips.
The 2026 event brought together companies, researchers, students, and government officials.
Organizers said the next event is tentatively planned for March 2028.
They want companies that use chips made in India to join too.
The 2026 event included 600 companies, including 300 from other countries.
It also led to 45 agreements between semiconductor companies.
A new report says India’s chip market could become much larger by 2035.
The report says areas such as artificial intelligence, cars, data centers, and telecommunications may help drive this growth.
The next SEMICON India is tentatively scheduled for March 2028, subject to change.
Organizers expect electronics companies using Made-in-India chips to participate in the next edition.
SEMICON India 2026 produced 45 memorandums of understanding and agreements among semiconductor companies.
Participation grew to 600 companies, including 300 international firms, compared with 350 companies previously.
