Proof Point Findings
- Semiconductor Companies – Organizations manufacturing and selling integrated circuits or other electronic devices made from materials acting as conductors or insulators depending on chemical composition or external conditions
- Intensifying Competition – One in five semiconductor executives surveyed by KPMG think new competitors/disruptors, such as local Chinese firms and technology giants like Apple, have biggest potential impact on company growth in next three years
- Economic and Regulatory Environment – 37% see geopolitical factors (e.g. Brexit and result of U.S. presidential elections), global and local economics, and cost of doing business as disruptors to company's growth
- Key Drivers – Include growth in demand for consumer electronic devices (e.g. smartphones, wearable devices, and Internet-of-Things), intensifying competitive environment, continuously evolving political and economic landscape, and converging industries
