The Global Semiconductor Capital Equipment market to grow at a CAGR of 3% over the period 2012-2016.
One of the major drivers in this market is the increasing demand from smartphone manufacturers. Smartphones provide the highest growth potential for the Global Semiconductor Capital Equipment market since advanced semiconductor equipment are increasingly being used in the manufacture of smartphones.
The Global Semiconductor Capital Equipment market is witnessing an increasing number of mergers and acquisitions, and this trend is expected to continue in the coming years. Both existing vendors and new entrants prefer the acquisitive route to either enter the market or broaden their portfolio of offerings. For instance, Applied Materials has acquired Varian Semiconductor Equipment Associates Inc. in November 2012. This acquisition will enhance the portfolio of Applied Materials with the addition of the latest ion implantation technology.
