86 Co-signatories of the Industry Endorsement of the Semiconductor Coalition Declaration

The signatories of the Industry Endorsement welcome and support the declaration of the Semiconductor Coalition Europe and urge immediate action to define clear goals underpinned by a measurable execution strategy, developed in closest partnership with industry. Concretely, the call addresses the following three actions:

1. Bold action and clear ownership from the Commission and Member States to bring the Declaration to life;
2. Establish the necessary preconditions for a healthy business climate, including regulatory and administrative simplification, incentive programmes, faster permitting, grid access, power supply, stable supporting infrastructure, talent attractiveness, free and fair trade, and secure access to critical raw materials, and a mindset shift in policymaking for highly strategic industry sectors such as semiconductors, that institutionalises involvement of industry in policymaking; and
3. Develop a market- and industry-driven business case to connect European and global end markets and facilitate European and international partnerships and investments. Government and industry must work in close coordination to ensure that the development of the ecosystem matches the demand in Europe and beyond. The business case should also include an assessment of revenue potential, required production capacities and analyse relevant investment factors (costs, risks, EU location conditions).
