www.researchandmarkets.com - Research and Markets (www.researchandmarkets.com/research/c33fd1/industrialmedical) has announced the addition of the "Industrial/Medical Electronics Service" report to their offering.
Complete coverage of tactical and strategic trends for the global industrial/medical electronics and semiconductor markets. Forecasts to 2013.
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. 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 however, the application base making up the industrial and medical sector covers an extremely broad range, from factory automation to
test & measurement to consumer medical. Accordingly, the supply chain is exceptionally fragmented, with few OEMs covering the broad market and most focused on just one or two areas. This makes detailed analysis of the sector extremely complicated and time consuming for semiconductor vendors to undertake comprehensively.
Semicast' s Industrial/Medical Electronics & Semiconductor Service has been developed 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.
