Notably, as IT systems become increasingly complex, Japanese enterprises are shifting from self-operated models to managed services (IMS) to ensure performance, security, and cost optimization. At the same time, Japan considers semiconductors a strategic pillar of its digital economy and technological security. The Japanese government aims to increase domestic chip revenue to approximately USD 250 billion by 2040, multiple times its current level, to meet growing demand from AI, data centers, and smart automotive industries.<\/span><\/p>\n
