<p>The Government recognises the importance of semiconductor technology to the global
economy. Semiconductors are a fundamental enabling technology for electronic devices
and the UK holds strengths in critical aspects of the advanced semiconductor supply
chain, including semiconductor design.</p><p>The Government is reviewing its approach
to the UK’s global semiconductor sector, working with industry experts, representative
bodies and the wider global community. The forthcoming Semiconductor Strategy will
set out how HMG intends to support this vital and strategically important sector.
This will build on existing HMG support for innovation and infrastructure such as
the Driving the Electronic Revolution challenge and the National Epitaxy Facility
amongst others. We are also collaborating closely with international partners to capitalise
