Pioneering semiconductor innovation and excellence
SEMICON is a catalyst for connection, collaboration and innovation, helping the semiconductor industry to deploy lifechanging tech worldwide.
At Sapphire Semicon, we are on a mission to empower India's semiconductor ecosystem by addressing one of its most critical challenges — the skill gap. As the global semiconductor industry enters a transformative phase, India is positioning itself as a significant player in design, manufacturing, and innovation. However, this vision can only be realized with a highly skilled, future-ready workforce.
We are a dedicated skilling organization focused on enabling talent for semiconductor design, fabrication, packaging, testing, and semiconductor-adjacent technologies such as embedded systems, chip design, AI at the edge, and hardware-software integration.
To bridge the semiconductor skill gap in India by developing a robust talent pipeline through hands-on, industry-aligned training, and to create a workforce that can contribute to India's emergence as a global semiconductor hub.
Our vision centers on supporting our members' innovation to deliver societal and economic benefits worldwide.
We represent our members with integrity, transparency, agility, and a customer focus guided by our core values.
We are fully aligned with the objectives of the India Semiconductor Mission (ISM) — to make India a global hub for electronics system design and manufacturing (ESDM). Our programs are tailored to complement the design-linked incentive schemes, semiconductor fabs, and compound semiconductor initiatives envisioned under ISM by ensuring a reliable and skilled workforce to support the ecosystem.
Our initiatives resonate with the vision of the MSDE’s Skill India Mission, which aims to empower youth with skill sets that make them more employable and productive. Our training curriculum is crafted to promote job-oriented, industry-ready competencies that align with the fast-evolving semiconductor domain.
We work closely with NSDC’s skilling framework to ensure that our courses adhere to National Occupational Standards (NOS) and are recognized under relevant Sector Skill Councils. Our efforts contribute to the Skill India ecosystem, ensuring quality, scalability, and standardization in semiconductor-related skilling.
Through its programs, communities, initiatives, products, and advocacy, SEMICON informs its members, cultivates industry collaboration, drives action, and synchronizes innovation.
