The industrial/medical sector has risen in importance at many semiconductor vendors over the last few years as suppliers have come to identify the market as dependable throughout the entire economic cycle. Revenues for semiconductors in the industrial/medical sector exceeded those in automotive for the first time in 2008 and outperformed the overall semiconductor market in 2009. Accordingly, many semiconductor vendors have been actively advancing their understanding of this diverse sector, to benefit from the opportunities offered as growth in other sectors slows.

Unlike other markets, the application base making up the industrial and medical sector covers an extremely broad range, from Factory Automation to Test & Measurement to Consumer Medical. The supply chain is exceptionally fragmented, with few OEMs covering the broad market and most focused on just one or two areas. This makes a tactical analysis of leading manufacturers a complicated and time consuming process for semiconductor vendors to undertake comprehensively.

To support this need, we have developed the Industrial/Medical Electronics & Semiconductor Service, specifically for semiconductor & component suppliers to understand detailed trends for industrial and medical electronics equipment revenues, equipment manufacturer market shares and semiconductor trends.

The service comprises of three core components which combine to provide comprehensive analysis of tactical and strategic trends for suppliers looking to gain further understanding of the industrial and medical sector.

• Tactical Analysis of the World Industrial/Medical Electronics Market & Supply Chain - published April 2010
• Industrial/Medical Semiconductor Service - published July 2010
• Inclusive telephone-based analyst support to answer questions and uncertainties related to market trends and forecasts
