Uttar Pradesh will present its UP Semiconductor Policy 2024 at Semicon India 2024, aimed at boosting the state's semiconductor industry and attracting investments.
Lucknow:The Uttar Pradesh government is set to showcase its policies, including the UP Semiconductor Policy 2024, at the three-day Semicon India 2024 that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to inaugurate at the India Expo Mart, Greater NOIDA on Wednesday.
Two other major events being held at the same venue include Electronica India and Productronica India.
Besides having discussions on smart manufacturing, development of indigenous wireless module, development of workforce and advanced packaging, the three-day Semicon India 2024 (exhibition and conference) will provide an opportunity for one-to-one discussions with the semiconductor manufacturers.
The state government, which came up with the UP Semiconductor Policy 2024 early this year, announcing incentives for the investors, has already received 4-5 proposals involving investment of ₹40,000 crore which are being processed at various stages.
