Business Challenge

The client is a well-known semiconductor manufacturing company based out of Germany. The company is one of the major producers of semiconductor, such as DRAM and NAND flash.

Our client, a well-known semiconductor manufacturing company wanted to understand the potential for their products in the US semiconductor industry. Also, the company wanted to devise a commercialization strategy to ensure commercial success for its products in the US semiconductor industry. However, they lacked insight into the US semiconductor market and competitive environment for making informed decisions. Also, the client realized that without a robust market assessment and competitor analysis, achieving sizeable market share and penetration would be impossible.

As such, they approached the experts at Infiniti Research to leverage their expertise in offering market intelligence solution. Also, they were looking for advisory on strategies for targeting new customers and suggestions on customer acquisition strategies.
