A New Chapter, A United Voice!
Dear IESA Community,

"We are witnessing a transformative moment in India's technological evolution. The nation stands at a historic crossroad, poised to emerge as a global powerhouse in the semiconductor and electronics industry. At the heart of this transformation lies India's exceptional talent pool and diverse technology ecosystem, which encompasses the entire value chain from design to manufacturing.

The newly elected Executive Council brings together distinguished leaders with extensive experience across semiconductor design, systems engineering, manufacturing and entrepreneurship. Their collective expertise spans both established corporations and innovative startups, providing a comprehensive understanding of the industry landscape.

Looking ahead, our vision for IESA (India Electronics and Semiconductor Association) is founded on three core principles: participation, inclusivity and transparency. We are committed to fostering meaningful dialogue across the ecosystem, ensuring that every stakeholder's perspective contributes to our shared progress. By creating an environment that nurtures collaboration and clear decision-making, we are laying the foundation for India's emergence as a:

  1. Product Nation - Driving indigenous innovation and design excellence
  2. Production Nation - Establishing world-class manufacturing capabilities
  3. Skills Nation - Developing next-generation talent and expertise
This three-pronged approach will be instrumental in positioning India as a global leader in the semiconductor and electronics industry”
