Electronic Component & Board Manufacturing in France Industry Data and Analysis
The Electronic Component and Board Manufacturing industry in France is operating in a dynamic environment characterised by a focus on niche sectors such as automotive, defence electronics and renewable energies. Companies are taking advantage of advances in power semiconductors and sensor technologies to step up their research and development efforts and modernise production to meet European standards, helping them meet the requirements of these niche markets. Supported by the French government's France 2030 plan, which provides significant funding for the electronics sector, and the EU's European Chips Act, the industry is well positioned to increase Europe's chip production capacity. Revenue is expected to increase at a compound annual rate of 1.5% over the five years through 2025 to €11.3 billion, including an estimated rise of 6.5% in 2025.French manufacturers face fierce competition from Asian companies such as TSMC and Samsung. To counter this, they’re relying on specialisation, quality and collaboration with research institutes to advance technologies such as gallium nitride (GaN) and silicon carbide (SiC). However, the high cost of research and development remains a huge challenge. The industry is also working to improve the stability of the supply chain by localising its production capacity, diversifying its supplier networks and reducing its dependence on non-European sources. These efforts are in line with EU policy to promote technological sovereignty and are crucial to helping French manufacturers maintain a competitive advantage.Revenue is anticipated to edge upwards at a compound annual rate of 0.4% over the five years through 2030 to €11.5 billion. The era of digital transformation is fuelling demand for components that are essential for IoT and 5G technologies, opening up growth prospects in sectors such as smart cities, healthcare and industrial automation. At the same time, the industry is focusing on the development of energy-efficient products, driven by strong consumer demand for sustainable electronics and stricter environmental regulations. As AI technology becomes more widespread, demand for advanced semiconductors and robust printed circuit boards is increasing in various industries, creating growth opportunities for French manufacturers.
