Vaishnaw inaugurated the Qualcomm Chennai Design Center, which was set up with an investment of Rs 177.27 crore.
The facility will be located on the famous Old Mahabalipuram Road, commonly known as the Information Technology Corridor, and will specialize in wireless connectivity solutions with an emphasis on innovations that complement Wi-Fi technology.
“The Qualcomm Design Center has a highly talented semiconductor design team of approximately 1,600 people working at the facility.Tamil Nadu is a state of great talent. Today’s Qualcomm Design Center is another milestone in the talent journey of Tamil Nadu,” Vaishno told reporters after visiting the design centre.
Elaborating on the centre, he said, “What is special about this center is that semiconductor design is done end-to-end. For a long time, most of the design has been done in India, but here we are That is what is special about today’s program.Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s vision is to start with the design, manufacturing and ATMP (assembly, test, marking and packaging) facilities and to The investment made at the design center will open new doors for semiconductor design in line with the ‘Make in India’ campaign and support the growth of a strong indigenous design ecosystem. It will open up opportunities.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday laid the foundation stone of three semiconductor facilities with an investment of Rs 1.25 billion.
Referring to this, Vaishnau said Prime Minister Modi has built the entire semiconductor value chain, the entire ecosystem today. And this is the basis of developed countries. The minister said this is because semiconductors are the gateway to everything we use in our lives today, including the automotive industry, electronics, laptops, servers, mobile phones and consumer electronics.
“It is very important to bring this value chain to India. I am very happy that every part of the value chain (of the semiconductor industry) is being put in place at today’s inauguration ceremony. In my term, I will build on this foundation to create a strong industry for our country,” he said.

“With 5G, we have become equal to the world and better than the world. With 6G we will lead the world. That is the base on which we will work,” he said .
Qualcomm said in a statement that it has launched a program to support 6G university research in India, in line with the Center’s Bharat 6G Vision, which encourages academic research and leadership in emerging 6G technologies. PTI VIJ VIJ SS
