| Abstract: | This study explores the Dutch semiconductor industry's growth potential under the European Union (EU) Chips Act. It will give an answer to the question: "What mode of governance fits best for the Dutch semiconductor industry to use the opportunities provided by the EU Chips Act to improve its market position?” It examines the current strengths and weaknesses of the industry, the existing mode of governance, and the opportunities that the EU Chips Act presents for strategic growth to enhance Europe’s autonomy and competitiveness in the semiconductor industry. Based on a comprehensive analysis of the industry's SWOT characteristics and the EU Chips Act's main objectives, it proposes a network governance model, incorporating market and knowledge governance, to effectively leverage the Act's benefits. By embracing strategies like increased collaboration through a triple-helix approach, advocating for the establishment of competence centres and pilot lines, the Dutch semiconductor sector can enhance its global position. The government can further support this by facilitating access to the Chips Joint Undertaking (JU) resources, investing in education, and training, and promoting and supporting the establishment of competence centres and pilot lines. These findings will assist policymakers and the industry in informed decision-making, promoting the Dutch semiconductor industry's growth and its contribution to the economy. |
