Europe has a vibrant and diverse electronics industry built upon decades of development. In the context of four key drivers, the region targets an even more bullish semiconductor sector and is actively pursuing the reshoring of chip manufacture. What challenges does this present, however, and is the specialty gases and materials supply chain in Europe ready to meet the demand?
In this white paper from gasworld, we consider the reasons for reshoring, the challenges and opportunities presented by such a robust expansion of Europe’s semiconductor sector, and the gaps likely to be faced in the electronics materials supply chain.
