Fujifilm’s initiative stands out for its flexibility, offering three collaboration models - direct manufacturing, licensed production by Indian companies, and joint ventures with local semiconductor manufacturers.

Partnerships with Japan are projected to be a key driver in India’s quest to achieve a $100 billion semiconductor market by 2030. This is further accelerated by government incentive schemes such as the Indian Semiconductor Mission.

Moreover, Japan’s semiconductors expertise in materials and equipment is seen as essential for scaling India’s manufacturing base, with joint ventures expected to foster research, skill development, and supply chain resilience.

India’s proactive stance is further reflected in the ongoing workforce development and education initiatives aiming to train a million skilled workers by 2030. The overall vision is to build an end-to-end domestic semiconductor ecosystem, enhance technology innovation, and position India as a trusted, long-term partner for global supply chains. Fujifilm’s investment underscores India’s emergence as a major destination for high-tech manufacturing and semiconductor innovation.
