Electronic System Design (ESD) industry revenue increased by 14% to $4.42 billion in the fourth quarter of 2023 from the $3.88 billion logged in the third quarter of 2023, according to the latest Electronic Design Market Data (EDMD) report from the ESD Alliance, a SEMI Technology Community.

The four-quarter moving average, which compares the most recent four quarters to the prior four, rose 14.1%.

“Electronic design automation (EDA) continued to report strong revenue growth in Q4 2023,” said Walden C. Rhines, Executive Sponsor of the SEMI Electronic Design Market Data report. “The Computer-Aided Engineering, Printed Circuit Board and Multi-Chip Module, Semiconductor Intellectual Property, and Services categories reported double-digit growth. Further, all geographic regions reported substantial growth.”

The companies tracked in the EDMD report employed 60,106 people globally in 4Q 2023, an 8.9% jump over the 4Q 2022 headcount of 55,192 and up by 0.6% compared to 3Q 2023.
