The global semiconductor market will grow by 11.2 percent in 2025 and by another 8.5 percent in 2026, according to forecasts by the industry organization World Semiconductor Trade Statistics (WSTS).
“Following a strong rebound in 2024, the global semiconductor market is forecast to grow by 11.2% in 2025, reaching a total value of $700.9 billion. The expansion is being driven primarily by the logic and memory segments, which are expected to post solid double-digit growth, driven by continued demand in areas such as artificial intelligence, cloud infrastructure and advanced consumer electronics,” the report said.
It added that regionally, the Americas and Asia-Pacific are expected to lead growth, with projected growth rates of 18.0 per cent and 9.8 per cent, respectively.
