Consulting and dedicated studies in electronics

   

In the field of electronics and components, DECISION is working both on technological and economic aspects. The company offers a wide range of ad hoc products and services: market surveys, forecasts, strategic analysis and diagnosis, new technologies consequences on markets, business plans, consulting in M&A for banks and investors.

The Electronics team recently worked on following topics:

  • The Future of the European Electronic Industries 2009-2014 (multiclient report, 2010 edition)
  • Valuation and consequences of the EMS positioning in the electronic industry value chain (report for Flextronics, 2009)
  • Energy needs in the semiconductor industry (for DALKIA, 2009)
  • World passive and interconnection component markets, 2008-2013 (multiclients report, 2009 edition)

Recognized for its expertise in that field, DECISION often takes to the floor and shows its studies and forecasts at conferences or symposia.

Expertise in the field of microelectronics and semiconductors

     
   

Since its beginning, DECISION regularly works on economic studies for the microelectronics and semiconductors industries.

DECISION’s experts’ competences are focused on the upstream of the industry, i.e. the equipment and its technologies of components, interfaces and communication.

Therefore, DECISION intervenes in consulting and expertise missions in different fields such as accompanying the launching of a new technology, forecasting markets, identifying commercial outlets, analysing the environment in terms of competition.

Multiclient report:
"China: tomorrow’s leader in electronics?"

A report of over 100 pages giving an analysis of the electronic industry and its evolution in China. The study aims to explain the reasons of such a success in China, which conducts the country to build up a dominating and more and more independent industry in this field.

All the main sectors are analyzed in the report:

  • Mass-market products : TVs, DVDs, mobile phones, PC, automotive...
  • … and  professional markets : telecommunications, aerospace, defence, industrial equipments...
  • With both market and production figures and forecasts for the period of time 2003-2008

The survey focuses on Chinese actors, their place in the domestic market and their business strategy overseas. As some of the major Chinese high-tech companies seek to develop their business abroad, the question arises whether this new transition is an opportunity or a threat for the world leaders in the electronics industry.
