Demand for Smart Devices Propels Innovations in Semiconductors
The growing popularity of smartphones, tablets, and laptops has increased demand for advanced semiconductors, fueling ongoing innovation in chip design and production and driving market growth. According to the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA), in March 2025, it stated that global sales of semiconductors totalled $627.6 billion in 2024, a 19.1% increase from $526.8 billion in 2023. Sales in the fourth quarter were $170.9 billion, up 17.1% compared to the fourth quarter of 2023 and 3.0% more than the third quarter of 2024, and December sales fell by 1.2% compared to November. Sales were higher year-over-year in the Americas (44.8%), China (18.3%), and Asia-Pacific/All Others (12.5%), but lower in Japan (-0.4%) and Europe (-8.1%). Sales month-to-month in December improved in the Americas (3.2%) but declined in Asia Pacific/All Others (-1.4%), China (-3.8%), Japan (-4.7%), and Europe (-6.4%). In addition, in 2024, segments of semiconductor products witnessed considerable growth, with logic products taking the lead with $212.6 billion in sales, followed by memory products at $165.1 billion, and DRAM products at 82.6%.
The Usage of AI is Driving Demand for Advanced Semiconductor Technology
The expanding use of AI across sectors demands cutting-edge semiconductor technologies, which leads to heightened demand for custom manufacturing processes and fuels market growth. According to the World Semiconductor Trade Statistics (WSTS) org., in 2024, it released its updated forecast for the global semiconductor market and predicted growth in 2024 and 2025. The new forecasts 19.0% year-on-year growth in the market and an overall worth of $627 billion globally during 2024 based on trends within the computing sector. The growth will be seen in the memory and logic segments at 81.0% and 16.9%, respectively, while product categories such as Discrete, Optoelectronics, Sensors, and Analog Semiconductors can experience decreases. Geographically, the Americas and Asia-Pacific are expected to have growth rates of 38.9% and 17.5%, respectively, and Japan's growth is expected to be 1.4%, while Europe can experience a fall of 6.7%.
In addition, the WSTS predicts significant semiconductor market growth in 2025 with an 11.2% rise that will bring the global market value to across $697 billion. The logic and memory segments are the main reasons behind such growth, as they are predicted to exceed $400 billion combined, with logic increasing more than 17% and memory more than 13% annually. The semiconductor segments are expected to witness more subdued, single-digit growth, reflecting steady performance throughout the industry. All regions are also expected to keep growing, with double-digit yearly growth rates for both the Americas and Asia Pacific.
Automotive: A Key Segment in Market Growth
The automotive sector is also experiencing significant change owing to the emergence of electric vehicles, the deployment of sophisticated autonomous systems, and the increasing demand for thermally efficient chips. For instance, in March 2025, BOS Semiconductors signed an agreement with a European OEM to create an Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) chiplet-based SoC for their next-generation automotive system. The alliance features BOS' Eagle-N (250 TOPS automotive AI accelerator) and Eagle-A (standalone ADAS SoC) as part of the chiplet system design with a high-speed UCIe interface. ADAS solutions are essential for the improvement in vehicle safety and the support of autonomous driving technologies. Chiplet-based designs provide a modular architecture that allows the use of smaller, inexpensive, specialized chips that are tailored to particular ADAS functions.
Regional Outlook
The global semiconductor contract manufacturing market is further divided by geography, including North America (the US and Canada), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, Australia and New Zealand, ASEAN Countries, and the Rest of Asia-Pacific), Europe (the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Russia, and the Rest of Europe), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America).
Government Backing and National Security in North America
US government incentives and national security programs are increasing domestic chip manufacturing, leading to an emerging demand for secure foundry services for defense and critical infrastructure. For instance, in November 2024, the US Department of Commerce provided Intel with $7.86 billion in direct financial support via the US CHIPS and Science Act to drive its commercial semiconductor manufacturing and advanced packaging initiatives in Arizona, New Mexico, Ohio, and Oregon. This investment complements a $3 billion deal to support the Secure Enclave program, which further increases semiconductor output for the US government. This investment, supplemented by a 25% tax credit on an investment, backs Intel's proposal to invest over $100 billion in the US.
Asia-Pacific Region Dominates the Market with Major Share
Asia-Pacific holds a significant share, owing to the expansion of the automotive semiconductor market is experiencing substantial growth due to the growing electronics-driven nature of vehicles, resulting in a surge in demand for microcontrollers, sensors, and power management chips. For instance, in September 2024, Adani partnered with Israel's Tower Semiconductor to develop a $10 billion project to set up a semiconductor manufacturing facility. The project aims to boost India's chip-making abilities, with the plant set to manufacture chips for application in drones, cars, smartphones, and other mobility solutions.
The major companies operating in the global semiconductor contract manufacturing market include GlobalFoundries U.S. Inc., Samsung Electronics Co., Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp. (SMIC), Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd., and United Microelectronics Corp., among others. Market players are leveraging partnerships, collaborations, mergers, and acquisition strategies for business expansion and innovative product development to maintain their market positioning.
