This sectoral report has been prepared in the framework of the ‘Advanced Technologies for Industry’ (ATI) project, initiated by the European Commission, Directorate General for Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs and the Executive Agency for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises. It analyses trends in the generation and uptake of advanced technologies, as well as related entrepreneurial activities and skills needs in the value chain of electronic components and systems. It covers in particular industry domains, but also with an emphasis on trends and challenges in the area of micro- and nanoelectronics (MNE). It interprets data from a list of data sources, compiled to monitor advanced technologies and their applications in industry across Europe and key competitor economies. The starting point of this analysis has been 16 advanced technologies that are a priority for European industrial policy, which enable process, product and service innovation throughout the economy and hence foster industrial modernisation. ‘Advanced technologies’ are defined as recent or future technologies that are expected to substantially alter the business and social environment, and include advanced materials, advanced manufacturing, artificial intelligence, augmented and virtual reality, big data, blockchain, cloud technologies, connectivity, industrial biotechnology, Internet of Things, microand nanoelectronics, mobility, nanotechnology, photonics, robotics, and security. The relevance of these specific technologies in the electronics industry has been explored through patent analysis and data on private equity investments, skills and technology uptake.
