Ranking technology giants

China and India are developing very rapidly and strongly in high technology globally. Meanwhile the US seems to be going down.

According to Business Week research, North America is now behind and far behind China in manufacturing electronic devices, an array of everything, from computers to electrical appliances. household electronics, mobile phones and electronic entertainment devices automatically.

The production figures will help us to more comprehensively evaluate national competitiveness in the global technology market.

ISuppli predicts that China will produce electronic products worth up to 271 billion dollars in 2007. This number is far above the estimated amount of production in North America but mainly dominated by the US (182.4 billion USD), equivalent to 67% of China's production capacity. However, both China and the US will still surpass India this year. India's production level is only 10.8 billion USD, equal to 1/17 of the US.

Indian electronics will grow

In the next 5 years, India seems to become stronger. According to iSuppli, from 2006 to 2011, India's revenue from electronics manufacturing will grow annually (CAGR) at 19.4%. Although the initial start was low, this figure was nearly double that of China and 4 times higher than that of North America.

China leads the way in chip manufacturing

China surpassed North American and Indian bloc countries for semiconductor components shipments with sales of about $ 73.8 billion in 2007. This is the number shipped to local companies, not to mention production. Chip exports in other countries, and will outperform North American countries as well as India.

India will also thrive on chip manufacturing

India is expected to grow stronger in semiconductor components than the rest of the countries, with an annual CAGR of 26.8% from 2006 to 2011, well above China. National (9.7%) and North American countries (6.1%).

Influence on US technology

Sometimes the influence of a country on the global electronics industry is reflected in the value of television or chip production in a year. The number of semiconductors purchased to serve the electronic design industry's activities is an interesting measure. This number is influenced mainly by human creativity, not the manufacturer's production scale.

To put it more simply, the design of high-tech products directly led to the production of various devices and led to the purchase of semiconductor components. Companies involved in the design of electronic devices such as computers, cell phones and televisions are responsible for deciding on the specific use of certain chips for their products. Therefore, those companies as well as the countries where the company is located will have a great influence on the global semiconductor components industry.

In this case, the United States is currently leading the world. It is calculated that the United States has 34.4% of global influence on design in this year, while China accounts for only 7.6% and India with 2.9%. The design impact in the US has reached 69.3 billion USD, nearly 5 times higher than China and nearly 35 times more than India.

Cellular phone

How do consumers in a country connect with each other? North America currently accounts for 81.5% of mobile phones, and China is only 38% while this figure in India is 20%. However, in terms of mobile phone subscribers, China is currently leading with 504.7 million subscribers in 2007, compared with 272.9 million in North America and 226 million in India.

US leads the way in broadband access

Another way to compare the level of technological competition between countries is the penetration of broadband links in families in that country. This is especially important because broadband is essential for both content and commercial development in the economy. In 2007, the United States is leading with 48% of families with broadband Internet access, followed by China 11% and India with a modest 1%.
