What are the key milestones in IESA's transformative electronics journey?
Over the past decade, IESA has embarked on a transformative journey, catalysing significant developments in the sector through strategic initiatives and collaborative efforts. At the forefront of this journey are several key milestones:
Policy Advocacy: IESA's proactive engagement with central and state governments has led to the formulation of crucial policies aimed at supporting and nurturing the electronics and semiconductor industry. By highlighting the sector's potential and advocating for policy interventions, IESA has played a pivotal role in shaping initiatives like MSIPS, EMC, PLI, DLI, and skilling programs, ensuring a conducive environment for growth and innovation.
Skill Development: The SemiconIndia FutureSkills program, launched in 2019, underscores IESA's commitment to bridging the skill gap between academia and industry. IESA being Board member of ESSCI was the starting point during 2015. By providing handson training and fostering collaboration with educational institutions, IESA has empowered thousands of students with industry-relevant skills, nurturing a talent pool aligned with evolving industry needs.
