Archetype Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director: Tatsuhiko Kanno), a consulting firm specializing in new business development, has published a free research report titled 'Semiconductor and Electronic Components Industry Diversification Strategy Research Report 2026' (27 pages in total). The report investigates the actual state of diversification and new business initiatives of 65 Japanese companies in the semiconductor and electronic components industry based on publicly available information (such as medium-term management plans, IR materials, and press releases).

This report categorizes the investment trends of the 65 companies into 10 themes and outlines the three branching points and structural issues that determine the success or failure of diversification.

Background and Purpose of the Survey The semiconductor and electronic components industry possesses abundant technical touchpoints with growing markets such as EVs, renewable energy, industrial IoT, and generative AI infrastructure. However, many companies face the challenge of stagnating at the Proof of Concept (PoC) stage, failing to reach commercialization.

Through supporting new business development for over 90 companies, Archetype has confirmed that the cause of this stagnation is rarely a lack of technical capability or ideas. Rather, it frequently stems from organizational structure—the absence of a framework to absorb commercialization, unestablished decision-making criteria, and a perception gap between management and frontline operations. This report systematically structures these structural issues through a cross-sectional analysis of public information from 65 companies.
