As India sets its sights on becoming a global leader in semiconductor manufacturing, Orbit & Skyline, a pioneering Global semiconductor services provider, is accelerating this transformation. With a global footprint and deep engineering expertise, the company plays a pivotal role in strengthening the nation’s semiconductor ecosystem by providing end-to-end support to IC manufacturers, fostering talent development, and enabling strategic partnerships with OEMs.

Established in 2009, Orbit & Skyline has over 15 years of experience in delivering comprehensive semiconductor solutions worldwide. Backed by a team of 500+ skilled engineers, the company empowers clients through customized turnkey fab solutions, OEM engineering support, and full lifecycle tool management. Orbit & Skyline remains committed to the long-term growth of India’s semiconductor capabilities, positioning itself as a trusted partner in advancing innovation and operational sustainability.

Given the global shortage of semiconductor professionals, Orbit & Skyline is building a robust Indian talent pool to serve the global semiconductor industry. By gaining international exposure, its engineers are also synthesizing best practices from around the world to strengthen and elevate the Indian semiconductor ecosystem.

Headquartered in India, with teams deployed across fabs worldwide, Orbit & Skyline has become a trusted name in the semiconductor industry. Its esteemed client base includes TSMC, LAM Research, Tower Semiconductor, SCL, Axcelis, GlobalFoundries (GF), STMicroelectronics, Infineon, Texas Instruments, and KACST, among others. Managing over 3,000 tools across the globe, the company provides complete support for both CMOS and compound semiconductor fabs, including tool installation, preventive maintenance, legacy tool support, and lifecycle management.

One of Orbit & Skyline’s key differentiators is its full-stack support for legacy deposition, etch, and clean tools, a segment often overlooked but essential for maintaining fab operations. The company’s state-of-the-art Center of Excellence (CoE) is dedicated to addressing these legacy tool challenges through ongoing innovation, workforce development, and hands-on training in real fab environments. This facility ensures that engineers are industry-ready and capable of navigating complex fab scenarios.

In addition, Orbit & Skyline enables IC device manufacturers to extend the lifetime of capital-intensive semiconductor tools by providing engineering support, supply chain solutions, and performance upgrades, ultimately helping customers enhance productivity and maximize capital efficiency.

As India advances its Semiconductor Mission, Orbit & Skyline is contributing meaningfully to national objectives by:

• Generating high-skilled employment in semiconductor services

• Upskilling talent through hands-on, real-world training

• Transferring global best practices to Indian fabs

• Driving operational self-reliance by offering high-value services previously outsourced abroad

 Orbit & Skyline proudly embodies the “Make in India, Make for the World” vision in the semiconductor domain. By building a globally competitive talent pool, delivering critical engineering services, and deploying Indian teams across international fabs, the company is empowering India’s semiconductor ambitions and serving as a reliable partner for global industry leaders.

The company’s strategic partnerships with leading IC manufacturers and OEMs further strengthen its role in shaping India’s semiconductor future.

“India is at a historic inflection point in semiconductor manufacturing, and Orbit & Skyline is proud to contribute by delivering world-class fab solutions, developing engineering talent, and supporting fabs across the globe.
