SEMICON India is one of South Asia’s largest semiconductor trade shows, bringing together semiconductor-related companies and government agencies from around the world and spanning a wide range of sectors within the semiconductor industry. The 2026 iteration attracted significant attention both domestically and internationally as a symbol of the development of India’s semiconductor industry, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi even attending on the first day. Efforts are currently underway in India to build an ecosystem for the entire industry, ranging from semiconductor design and manufacturing to manufacturing equipment, materials, and advanced packaging. More than 600 organizations, including semiconductor manufacturers, related companies, and government agencies from around the world, took part in this year’s event, which drew approximately 40,000 visitors.
The NX Group is the only Japanese logistics provider to have exhibited at this event for three consecutive years, showcasing its end-to-end logistics solutions that offer seamless service from air and ocean freight to customs clearance, warehousing, factory delivery, installation support, and shipment of finished products. The Group also introduced visitors to the semiconductor logistics expertise it has cultivated globally, as well as its efforts to develop its logistics infrastructure in India and strengthen its logistics capabilities to better serve the semiconductor industry.
Numerous customers, partners, and government officials stopped by the NX Group booth during the event to conduct business discussions and exchange views. The Group received a wide range of inquiries regarding the transport of semiconductor-related cargo, logistics infrastructure, and high-quality logistics services, and took full advantage of this valuable opportunity to gain a direct understanding of its customers’ needs and use that insight to further enhance its services.
