With over 1,500 attendees, 90+ Speakers, 10 report and MOU launches, 50 keynote sessions, 7 panel discussions, and 250 plus booths displaying the whole semiconductor value chain, the first day of the esteemed summit was an impressive affair. The exhibitions at the flagship event, under the overarching theme of “Sand to Silicon to Systems: Experience The End to End Ecosystem Journey,” were officially commenced today highlighting India’s increasing significance in the global semiconductor value chain.

Speaking at an exclusive press briefing organised by Gujarat Government & IESA today, Ms. Mona Khandhar IAS, Principal Secretary, DST, Government of Gujarat, said, “Gujarat Semiconnet, IESA Vision Summit 2025 and IPSEC together represent a remarkable convergence of strategic visionaries and innovation that embodies India’s growing leadership in the global semiconductor and electronics ecosystem. Today’s event here in Gandhinagar underscores our India’s commitment to creating a self-reliant digital economy as envisioned by our Hon’ble Prime Minister during the launch of Semicon India in 2024. The world is watching India making great strategic push to establish domestic semiconductor ecosystem. This flagship event puts another spotlight on India.

Speaking at an exclusive press briefing, Ashok Chandak, President of IESA, emphasized the significance of the summit in advancing India’s semiconductor ambitions, stating: “India is on its journey to becoming a global semiconductor powerhouse and fostering semiconductor manufacturing will be a key component to attain this. Market demand, depth of innovation, meaningful collaborations and government policies will be catalyst in creating sustainable leadership for India in Semiconductor manufacturing. By bringing together the world’s leading thinkers, Vision Summit lays the groundwork for India to fully leverage all of its resources in order to create its own design and manufacturing capabilities. The impressive response and participation of leading global players at the summit shows continued faith in India’s semiconductor industry.”

Dr. V Veerappan, Chairperson of IESA, highlighted the importance of collaboration and innovation, stating: “The semiconductor industry is evolving at an unprecedented pace, and India must position itself as a global leader in semiconductor design and manufacturing. Through strategic partnerships and policy support, a robust and resilient ecosystem can be established to drive cutting-edge technology, research, and talent development. The Vision Summit 2025 catalyzed meaningful discussions and actionable insights that will shape the future of India’s semiconductor landscape.”

The increasing prominence of India in the international semiconductor and electronics ecosystem is reflected in Vision Summit 2025. In addition to showcasing state-of-the-art innovations, this conference highlights the nation’s dedication to enhancing the semiconductor value chain. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had hoped to create a digital economy that could rely solely on domestic production during the launch of the Semicon India Program, IESA Vision Summit 2025 resonates his vision. Innovation and strategic visionaries have come together in an extraordinary way at the summit. It offers a one-of-a-kind chance to establish the course of a flourishing Semiconductor & Electronics System Design and Manufacturing (ESDM) ecosystem in the country through the sharing of ideas, presentation of cutting-edge research, addressing challenges, and promotion of collaboration. India is putting a lot of strategic effort into building a domestic semiconductor ecosystem, and everyone is watching. India is once again the center of attention thanks to IESA for extending this platform.
