Semiconductors: Trade Promotion
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, whether he plans to lead a semiconductor business delegation abroad.
Answered by Feryal Clark
Given the global nature of semiconductor supply chains, creating opportunities for businesses to establish international relationships is crucial for the UK’s growth. The Department for Science, Innovation and Technology works to make these connections. The National Technology Advisor, Dr Dave Smith, recently led the UK delegation to SEMICON Taiwan. This included representation from a Department for Business and Trade Mission and an Innovate UK Global Business Innovation Programme – both featuring UK semiconductor businesses. The Department will also work with the Department for Business and Trade ahead of the upcoming trade mission to India in November.
