(Google Inc.), Apple, NXP Semiconductors N.V., Analog Devices, Inc., Intel Corporation, Mediatek, Inc., NVIDIA Corporation, Qualcomm Incorporated, and Microsemi Corporation, are focusing their investment on technologically advanced, cost-effective, and more secure products & solutions for various applications.

Covid-19 Impact Analysis

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has abruptly re-shaped the global economy. Sudden decline in development is expected to hamper the artificial intelligence chip market growth. The impact on the market was initially limited to only some regions, such as China, however expanded to other regions, including Europe and the U.S. later. This put a stop to global economic activity, which had a significant impact on product sales.

Nowadays, governments in various countries around the world are swiftly implementing various measures to return the economy to a recovery path. Although leading players have witnessed COVID-19 pandemic fade in some regions, it has now spread around the world, and no one is able to predict when things may settle down.

Under this situation and at this point of time, it is extremely difficult to project the performance in the remaining months of the year. From this perspective, the market players have decided to promptly disclose full year projection, once a reasonable projection can be made. However, slowdown in productions by OEMs and reduction in demand for AI chip have slightly pulled down the market.

However, as vaccines roll out across the globe and the pandemic situation is better controlled, especially in North America and Europe, the recovery of the artificial intelligence chip market may get a boost.
