This week's ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Caveat Briefing⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ covers ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠how all EU member states have joined a Dutch-led "Semicon Coalition" calling for a revamped "Chips Act 2.0" focused on securing critical semiconductor technologies, speeding approvals, and expanding skills and funding. Backed by over 50 major companies, the group argues the EU must shift beyond its 20% market-share goal—now seen as unattainable—to strengthen its position in a global chip sector where Europe is projected to hold just 11.7% by 2030. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
