Open the African market for semiconductor lighting - The China-Africa Semiconductor Lighting Cooperation Conference was held in response to the call of China's "China-Africa Science and Technology Partnership Program" to implement the "Concerning Construction Agreement" signed between the Ministry of Science and Technology of the People's Republic of China and the Ministry of Higher Education and Science and Technology of the Republic of Kenya in October 2010. "Memorandum of Understanding on Semiconductor Lighting Demonstration Project" and "Memorandum of Understanding on Establishing a High-efficiency off-grid Lighting Center" effectively and effectively promote cooperation in semiconductor lighting between China and Africa. China-Africa Semiconductor Lighting Cooperation Conference was held on February 24, 2011 at the Chinese Academy of Sciences Semiconductor. Convened. The conference was organized by National Semiconductor Lighting Engineering R&D and Industry Alliance. Nearly 30 representatives from semiconductor lighting related companies attended the conference.
First, the head of the National Semiconductor Lighting R&D and Industry Alliance China-Africa Semiconductor Lighting Cooperation Project made a report on the progress of cooperation. The background of China-Africa semiconductor lighting cooperation, the existing foundation for the work, the concrete progress of the work, and the work plan for further cooperation were introduced in detail. The China-Africa semiconductor lighting cooperation can improve the lighting conditions of African countries and improve people’s quality of life on the basis of the implementation of relevant national calls. It is also beneficial for Chinese semiconductor lighting companies to explore the African market.
Business representatives with experience in African market development shared their experiences and views on the lighting market in Africa with the participants. Through on-the-spot investigations in the African market, they vividly introduced the African semiconductor lighting market conditions, market demand, product characteristics, and market competition. The African lighting market is also divided into high-school, low-end, but generally speaking, the performance requirements of the African market for products are not high, and the simple, durable and easy maintenance is the general demand for products. The companies that have carried out cooperation projects in Africa have also conducted lively discussions on the cooperation mode and difficulties encountered in the development of the African market. It is unanimously agreed that African semiconductor lighting has a huge market demand, but at the same time, the image and reputation of Chinese enterprises are in African countries. It is not high in mind and effective measures should be taken to change and enhance the image of Chinese companies in Africa as soon as possible. Delegates deeply appreciated that, relying solely on the strength of a single company, the single-minded approach in the vast African market cannot give full play to its advantages and it cannot meet the needs of the market.
Ms. Wu Ling, Secretary General of the National Semiconductor Lighting Engineering R&D and Industry Alliance, said that as the largest developing country in China, its semiconductor lighting products are intrinsically matching with the African market, and in the era of common development and energy-saving and low-carbon era, it is now Semiconductor lighting companies have an excellent opportunity to enter the African market. The government has the idea, the market needs, and the company has strength. Chinese companies should establish credibility as soon as possible, and establish corresponding channels, financial and market protection mechanisms, make full use of government policies, integrate related resources on the alliance platform, and explore specific operational issues. The measures will enable companies to take root in Africa as soon as possible.
Delegates said that they hope to effectively use the country's policy support, play a coalition role, integrate resources, realize joint operations, information sharing, and channel cooperation, truly change the image of Chinese manufacturing, and enable Chinese companies to go global. Based on this goal and principle, we discussed the specific forms and mechanisms of cooperation and eventually reached a consensus. We set up a preparatory group for the “Lighting Africa†Semiconductor Lighting Alliance and deployed the specific work.
