Qualcomm Technologies recently announced an advanced semiconductor design using 2nm technology, marking an important milestone in the group's technical development roadmap.
This design was displayed at Qualcomm's facility in Bengaluru during the visit of Indian Minister of Electronics and Information Technology Ashwini Vaishnaw, emphasizing India's growing role in the global chip industry.
According to Qualcomm, the 2nm technology advance not only reflects the company's research and development capabilities, but also shows the rapid maturity of the semiconductor design ecosystem in India.
This South Asian country currently owns Qualcomm's largest engineering force outside the United States, deeply involved in many important stages of the chip development process.
During a visit to the facility in Bengaluru, Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw affirmed that this milestone is proof that India's design ecosystem has reached a global competitive level.
He emphasized that this achievement is in line with the Indian Government's vision in building a strong domestic semiconductor industry, capable of playing a key role in the global supply chain.
Qualcomm's engineering teams in India are currently contributing to many key stages, including design deployment, testing, system integration and artificial intelligence (AI) optimization.
The work done here supports technology platforms and products that are serving billions of users around the world, from smartphones, IoT devices to smart connection solutions.
Mr. Srini Maddali - Senior Vice President in charge of Engineering of Qualcomm India Private Limited - said that the 2nm achievement is clear proof of the capacity and expertise of the engineering team in India.
According to Mr. Srini Maddali, this country continues to play an indispensable role in Qualcomm's global technical development roadmap, especially when new technologies such as AI, 5G and high-performance computing are becoming increasingly important.
Meanwhile, Mr. Savi Soin - Chairman of Qualcomm India - emphasized that this milestone reflects more than two decades of the group's long-term commitment to the Indian market.
Mr. Savi Soin affirmed that India is currently the focus of Qualcomm's long-term innovation strategy, playing a key role in designing, developing and providing next-generation technologies for the global market.
With the 2nm chip breakthrough, Qualcomm not only consolidates its position in the global semiconductor race but also contributes to elevating India as a strategic chip design center.
This achievement is expected to boost India's technological ambitions, while creating new momentum for the semiconductor industry in the era of AI and smart connectivity.
