Global Semiconductor Foundry Market Growth (Status and Outlook) 2025-2031

Global Semiconductor Foundry Market Growth (Status and Outlook) 2025-2031

The global Semiconductor Foundry market size is predicted to grow from US$ 130960 million in 2025 to US$ 248350 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11.3% from 2025 to 2031.

Semiconductor Foundry is a business model in the semiconductor industry, which refers to accepting the commission of other fabless semiconductor companies (Fabless) and specializing in the processing of finished wafers to manufacture integrated circuits, but not engaging in product design and back-end sales.

The semiconductor manufacturing (wafer fabrication) market are dominated few IDMs and foundries. Currently the key foundries are TSMC, Samsung Foundry, GlobalFoundries, United Microelectronics Corporation (UMC), SMIC, Tower Semiconductor, PSMC, VIS (Vanguard International Semiconductor), Hua Hong Semiconductor, and HLMC, etc. in 2023, the global foundries market size was US$ 113.1 billion and will reach US$ 277.9 billion in 2030. In 2023, the top five foundries hold a share over 83%.

WSTS has adjusted its Spring 2024 forecast upwards, projecting a 16.0 percent growth in the global semiconductor market compared to the previous year. The updated market valuation for 2024 is estimated at US$611 billion. This revision reflects stronger performance in the last two quarters, particularly in computing end-markets.

For 2024, mainly two Integrated Circuit categories are anticipated to drive the growth for the year with double digit increase, Logic with 10.7 percent and Memory with 76.8 percent. Conversely, other categories such as Discrete, Optoelectronics, Sensors, and Analog Semiconductors are expected to experience single-digit declines.

The Americas and Asia Pacific regions are projected to see significant growth, with increases of 25.1 percent and 17.5 percent, respectively. In contrast, Europe is expected to show marginal growth of 0.5 percent, while Japan is forecasted to see a slight decline of 1.1 percent.

Looking ahead to 2025, WSTS forecasts a 12.5 percent growth in the global semiconductor market, reaching an estimated valuation of US$687 billion. This growth is expected to be driven primarily by the Memory and Logic sectors, which are on track to soar to over US$200 billion in 2025 each, representing an upward trend of over 25 percent for Memory and over 10 percent for Logic from the previous year. All other segments are anticipated to record single-digit growth rates.

In 2025, all regions are poised for continued expansion. The Americas and Asia Pacific are expected to maintain their double-digit growth on a year-over-year basis.
