They can be found in household appliances, smart phones, cars, wind turbines, industrial plants and artificial intelligence data centres. Modern agriculture, medical technology and defense systems are also heavily dependent on high performance semiconductors. Therefore, chips are among the most strategically important technologies worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>pandemic<\/em> evidently demonstrated how vulnerable are global supply chains. The slowdown of production in Asia caused shortages all over Europe- mainly in the automotive industry. Vehicles often could not be delivered due to the missing individual semiconductors. The global semiconductor market is currently growing rapidly, driven primarly by the boom of the artificial intelligence. According to the European Commission data, the global market is expected to come to a volume of approximately <em>Eur 1.37 trillion by 2030<\/em>, with about <em>70 percent<\/em> of the growth linked to atrificial intelligence applications. High-performance chips are therefore the basis of modern <em>AI systems<\/em>, cloud services, autonomous vehicles and industrial robotics.<\/p>\n<p>Consequently, one of the the key priorities in Europe will be regional development policy, where the <em>EU Commission<\/em> tries to stimulate the regions, positioned as centers of semiconductors.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-9000816\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aacc.co.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/G12-prozessor-auf-einer-platine-envato-QL42CV8-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Processor on a circuit board\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aacc.co.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/G12-prozessor-auf-einer-platine-envato-QL42CV8-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.aacc.co.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/G12-prozessor-auf-einer-platine-envato-QL42CV8-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.aacc.co.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/G12-prozessor-auf-einer-platine-envato-QL42CV8-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.aacc.co.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/G12-prozessor-auf-einer-platine-envato-QL42CV8-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.aacc.co.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/G12-prozessor-auf-einer-platine-envato-QL42CV8-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Photo: pixabay<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- .vgblk-rw-wrapper --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the new Chips Act 2.0, the European Commission aims to additionally strengthen the semiconductor industry in Europe in order to reduce its dependence on third countries, stimulate investments and protect the EU\u2019s competitiveness in the global technological race.
