Geographic Regions Americas and EMEA Reported Double-Digit Increases
MILPITAS, Calif. — October 6, 2025 — Electronic System Design (ESD) industry revenue increased 8.6% to $5,089.4 million in the second quarter of 2025 from the $4,685.5 million registered in the second quarter of 2024, the ESD Alliance, a SEMI Technology Community, announced today in its latest Electronic Design Market Data (EDMD) report. The four-quarter moving average rose 10.4%, based on a comparison of the most recent four quarters to the prior four.
“The electronic design automation (EDA) industry continues to report strong year-over-year revenue growth in Q2 2025,” said Walden C. Rhines, Executive Sponsor of the SEMI Electronic Design Market Data report. “Product categories including Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE), Printed Circuit Board and Multi-Chip Module, Semiconductor IP, and Services reported increases, with CAE and Services showing double digit gains. Geographic regions including Americas, EMEA, and APAC reported growth in Q2, even hitting double digits in Americas and EMEA.”
The companies tracked in the EDMD report employed 72,529 people globally in Q2 2025, a 14.8% increase over the Q2 2024 headcount of 63,188 and up 12.6% compared to Q1 2025.
