Speaking at the occasion, Poornima Shenoy, president, ISA, said, "India has the innate potential to become a strategic and world-class manufacturing hub. SEMI also has an increasing focus on the solar photovoltaic space which is emerging as a sector of importance in India. Our organisations have come together to combine our mutual strengths to build upon it."
"SEMI has a long history of promoting the global expansion of semiconductor manufacturing," said Stanley T. Myers, president and CEO, SEMI. "The potential industry development in India is of interest to our members, and this partnership will encourage and enable the membership of both associations to take advantage of combined resources and establish strong collaborative relationships."
