THE SEMICONDUCTOR CRISIS WILL BE OVER BY 2023
Manufacturers of Ultra High Definition (UHD) TVs believe that the global crisis of chips and semiconductors, which occurred due to the fall in production during the pandemic and affects all electronic products, will be completely overcome in 2023 and will coincide with an increase in sales of 8K models.
This is the opinion of Baris Altinkaya, Chief Marketing Officer of Vestel, one of the world’s largest TV manufacturers, which accounts for 18% of sales in Europe, as well as other private labels in large stores in the 157 countries to which it exports its products.
According to data handled by manufacturers, more than 7 million 4K and 8K TVs have already been sold in Spain, and the trend is on the rise and will continue in 2022.
Baris Altinkaya will participate in the 4KHDR Summit, which opens on Monday, November 15 at the National Digital Content Pole in Malaga and brings together the world’s leading manufacturers, engineers, and producers in 4K and 8K.
The 4KHDR Summit celebrates this year its seventh edition with a hybrid format, with an opening day in person and four other virtual days, with more than 40 conferences of experts from Asia, America, and Europe.
Vestel, which has a workforce of 18,000 employees, considers Spain one of its main markets and joined as a founding member of the UHD Spain Association, which will hold its first General Assembly in Malaga and present its White Book at an event that will welcome new members and collaborating companies, such as FORTA, TV3, Video-MOS, Synamedia, Canal Sur and the Official College of Technical Telecommunications Engineers (COITT).
