Tokyo Electron to Establish Chip Engineer Team in India, Supporting Semiconductor Push

Tokyo Electron, a major Japanese chip equipment maker, plans to establish a team of engineers in India by 2026 to capitalize on the Indian government`s push for domestic semiconductor production. This initiative involves hiring and training local engineers to support companies like Tata Electronics Pvt, with a focus on robotics and remote support. India is actively attracting international chipmakers through incentives, aiming to bridge the technology gap. Tokyo Electron, a supplier to global chipmaking giants, anticipates record growth and sees India as part of its global expansion strategy, driven by increasing chip demand. This comes amidst US pressure on Japan to restrict chipmaking technology exports to China.
