During the seminar, we will also inform you about the possibilities to expand to the US with support of the Dutch government through the PIB program.

The US Semiconductor and High-Tech Market

The United States is the world’s leading high-tech and semiconductor market. The country is home to a thriving ecosystem of chip designers, equipment manufacturers, advanced materials suppliers and cutting-edge research institutions. Thereby making it one of the most strategically important markets for Dutch high-tech companies.

Driven by landmark legislation such as the CHIPS and Science Act, the US has committed tens of billions of dollars to domestic semiconductor manufacturing and supply chain development. This creates significant opportunities for international partners and suppliers with the right expertise.

At the same time, the scale and complexity of the US market means that entering it successfully requires the right preparation, the right partners, and the right support.
