Delhi to host 4th edition of SEMICON India 2025 exhibition in September
The forth edition will have a theme of 'Building the Next Semiconductor Powerhouse'. This event will be jointly organised by India Semiconductor Mission or ISM and Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International (SEMI).
SEMICON 2025 will take place under the aegis of the India Semiconductor Mission, Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), Government of India. The upcoming September event will witness a high number of stakeholder participation, showing the success of the SEMICON India program. It will attract many international semiconductor companies.
The SEMICON 2025 exhibition will have four international pavilions one each from- Japan, South Korea, Singapore, and Malaysia for fostering the bilateral cooperation with India.
As part of its commitment towards training and skill development, the event will also conduct upskilling and career counselling sessions for students and young talent.
SEMICON India 2025 exhibition will host more than 300 companies from 18 countries, showing the grand value of this event in the entire electronics value chain. This three-day conference will also feature addresses from CXOs or Chief Experience Officers and expert speakers from different fields.

Eight chipsets designed by IIT students sent to fabs: IT Minister Vaishnaw
TIL Creatives Students at Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) have designed 20 chipsets and eight of them have already been 'taped out' and sent to global foundries and the Semi-Conductor Laboratory in Mohali for fabrication, electronics and IT minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said on at the 14th convocation ceremony of IIT-Hyderabad, Vaishnaw also reiterated that the first commercial-scale, made in India semiconductor chip will be built this year. IIT students designed the chipsets using tools provided under the government's India Semiconductor Mission. A chip is a single piece of semiconductor material, typically silicon, onto which an electronic circuit is etched while a chipset is a group of interconnected chips designed to work together to manage and direct the flow of data between the processor, memory, storage, and other peripherals in a computing device. Taping out means completion of the design process before sending to a manufacturing facility or foundry for fabrication. As of July 2025, India has six semiconductor fabrication plants (fabs) approved or under development. Founded in 1976, the government-owned Semi-Conductor Laboratory remains operational but only at legacy technology nodes. "The way we are going into the building of capital equipment and materials needed to build semiconductors, India will become one of the top-5 semiconductor nations in the coming years," Vaishnaw credited the spurt in semiconductor research to the government providing the latest electronic design automation tools (EDA) to 270 colleges and 70 startups. As many as 700 students at IIT-Hyderabad used these tools for a cumulative 300,000 hours over the past six months, the minister said the Centre's open-source artificial intelligence resources platform, AIKosh, now has 880 data sets and 200-plus models electronics exports have topped $40 billion, marking an eight-fold increase over the last 11 years. "In just 11 years, we have increased our electronics production six times. That's a CAGR double digit, which any corporate would be envious of,' he said.

Eight out of 20 semiconductor chips designed by students: Ashwini Vaishnaw
The country's six-decade aspiration to produce commercial-scale chips has finally come to fruition this year. Six semiconductor units are under construction, with major design and talent development efforts under way. Eight out of 20 semiconductor chips designed by students — many from IIT Hyderabad — have already been successfully taped out (completion of design phase), Union Minister for Information & Broadcasting Ashwini Vaishnaw said on Saturday. Addressing graduating students at the 14th convocation of Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad, Sangareddy, on Saturday, he spoke about advancements under the IndianAI Mission, telecom self-reliance — developing own 4G stack that is upgradable to 5G in three-and-a-half years, railway modernisation and indigenous innovation, particularly automatic train protection system Kavach, developed in Hyderabad and being implemented across the rail network. 'Today's graduates are entering a world of great uncertainty, but also immense opportunity, supported by a strong foundation built over the past decade,' he said, stressing the country's technological transformation such as in electronics manufacturing and India Semiconductor Mission. Mr. Vaishnaw invoked the country's economic leadership before colonial rule and called upon today's youth to lead the country back to being among the top two global economies by 2047. A total of 1,273 degrees, including 460 134 PhD and other courses, were awarded at the ceremony. Rahul Ramachandran of the Department of Computer Science won the President of India Gold Medal. Institute's gold medals were presented to Harmanpreet Singh, Ajith BS and Rishitha Mudunuri. Director, IITH, BS Murty presented the institute's report. He said the ceremony marks the graduation of the first cohorts of several new interdisciplinary programmes, including in Biotechnology & Bioinformatics, Computational Engineering, and Industrial Chemistry; in Quantum & Solid-State Devices and Sustainable Engineering; MSc in Medical Physics; and the first PhD in Artificial Intelligence. IITH was granted the 'Institute of National Eminence' status and recorded the highest-ever annual R&D funding in 2024–25, he informed.
