Great start to 2015 for semiconductor industry

Global semiconductor sales are increasingly positive with overall sales totaling $28.5 billion! This is an increase of 8.7% from January 2014 which is great news indeed! The totals for January 2015 is the industry's highest ever January total. Doing particularly well are the Americas which have increased by 16.4% compared to this time last year.

The figures come from the Semiconductor Industry Association and their CEO John Neuffer was very pleased with the results: "After a record-setting 2014, the global semiconductor industry is off to a promising start to 2015, posting its highest-ever January sales led by impressive growth in the Americas market."

After such a great year in 2014 it seems like 2015 may well be shaping up to be just as positive! Keep up to date with all the industry news by subscribing to our blog, liking us on Facebook or connecting on LinkedIn
