Bosch announced plans to move its semiconductor business into a dedicated division from January 2028 and open its manufacturing facilities to more external customers. The company is targeting annual semiconductor revenue of around €5bn by 2030 as it seeks business beyond automotive chips.

The new Semiconductors division will remain within Bosch. Its current parent division, Mobility Electronics, will retain production of vehicle electronic control units. Target markets for the chip expansion include robotics, factory automation, AI data centres and consumer devices. Bosch's manufacturing footprint spans around 40 chip sites worldwide.
