Pakistan Builds Semiconductor Ecosystem And Capacity
Federal Minister Shaza Fatima Khawaja said on Jan. 29 at IIUI that Pakistan’s National Semiconductor Policy, issued last year, prioritizes chip design, education and OSAT development before capital-intensive fabrication and seeks regulatory clarity, IP protection and a single-window facility. The government will procure EDA tools (including Cadence), create nine university semiconductor clusters, train about 7,200 engineers, and develop semiconductor- and OSAT-ready zones to boost industry capacity and national security.
