Lithography Systems Industry - Regional Analysis
Asia Pacific Market Analysis
The Asia Pacific region is projected to dominate the lithography systems market, garnering a revenue share of 42.7% revenue share. The government in China has allocated USD 180 billion for chip-making in 2023, propelling the local lithography capability. The data published by the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology in 2023 stated that 7.3 million enterprises have incorporated solutions related to lithography technology. Other than this, Japan has infused 14% of its ICT budget to upgrade lithography systems in 2024. The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology in India reported a 97.4% surge in funding associated with lithography between 2015-2023, rendering support to over 1.28 million small to medium-sized businesses.
North America Market Analysis
The lithography systems market in North America is anticipated to account for 32.6% of the revenue share. The market growth is driven by high demand from the semiconductor foundries, particularly from the U.S. Under the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program, USD 42.7 billion has been allocated for getting high-speed internet. These policies pushed the chipmakers to raise the wafer output to fulfill the hardware demand from the ICT industry. These trends ensure continued dominance of the U.S. market in high-value lithography equipment deployment.
The lithography systems market market in Canada is also witnessing steady growth fostered by innovation-focused strategies. Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) in the country aids the advanced manufacturing that includes the processing of semiconductors. The strategic investments highlight the country’s commitment to empower its rank in the worldwide semiconductor market. Also, there is a push particularly to advance the lithography system to modernize the electronics development. In 2022, the National Research Council’s CPFC in Canada invested USD 90.4 million in enhancing photonics fabrication facilities to aid semiconductor and lithography advancements.
