It is one of five technologies in the modern era that by 2030 is estimated to represent an economic market of a trillion dollars, an official statement said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;As a country we have a real opportunity to insert ourselves into this value chain (global microelectronics and semiconductors) taking advantage of Panama&#8217;s competitive advantages, such as our privileged geographical position, advanced logistics infrastructure and our long history within global trade,&#8221; said the head of state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Panamanian government reported last March that the <strong>Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD)<\/strong> analysed Panama&#8217;s potential for the semiconductor industry in order to give &#8220;recommendations and identify regulations and policies&#8221; for its development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the association of the United States and Panama was announced last July, it was specified that both countries would collaborate &#8220;strongly to carry out an in-depth evaluation of the existing semiconductor ecosystem&#8221; in the Central American country, &#8220;with the aim of identifying the strengths and areas of improvement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This review would be funded by the <strong>International Fund for Security and Technology Innovation or ITSI Fund,<\/strong> which was approved under the &#8216;GCHIPS Law of 2022&#8217; and which is &#8220;administered by the United States Department of State for the purpose of supporting and encouraging collaboration with countries it has considered crucial for the semiconductor industry,&#8221; according to official information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This article has been translated from the original which first appeered in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.panamaamerica.com.pa\/tecnologia\/panama-lanza-un-plan-para-el-desarrollo-de-semiconductores-1235142\">Pan Amercia<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Panama is one of the countries with which the United States announced in July 2023 a partnership to boost the semiconductor sector.
