Industry Data and Surveys
Every two years, Siemens EDA commissions Wilson Research Group to conduct a broad, vendor-independent survey of design verification practices around the world. Results of the functional verification study demonstrate an ongoing convergence of design and verification practices toward a common methodology.

Overview
The 2019 global semiconductor market was valued at $385.4 billion after experiencing a 15% decline due to a 32% drop in the memory IC market, which is expected to recover in 2021. The IC/ASIC portion of the semiconductor market is valued at about $186.6 billion. The IC/ASIC semiconductor market is expected to reach a value of $233.4 billion by 2024, growing at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.6% during this forecast period.
In contrast, the FPGA portion of the semiconductor market is valued at about $5 billion, and is expected to reach a value of $7.5 billion by 2030, growing at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.4% during this forecast period. While COVID-19 has had a negative impact in 2020 on a number of market segments (e.g., consumer and automotive), other market segments (e.g., data center computing, networking, storage, and communication) are experiencing positive growth required to support today’s growing work-from-home (WFH) environment. Ensuring functional correctness is still one of the biggest challenges for both the ASIC/IC and FPGA markets.
To quantify this, every two years, Siemens EDA commissions Wilson Research Group to conduct a broad, vendor-independent study of design verification practices around the world.
