PurposeTo introduce the four key industry roadmaps used by the electronics industry and to illustrate which parts of the supply chain each serves.Design/methodology/approachA comparison of the coverage of the iNEMI, ITRS, Jisso and IPC roadmaps.FindingsIt is apparent that the four key industry roadmaps do serve the supply chain and their respective industries. The roadmaps do not compete but rather, they actually complement each other and give the reader who understands them, a picture of the industry and its supply chain that is not available anywhere else.Research limitations/implicationsThe four key industry roadmaps provide comprehensive coverage for the electronics industry.Originality/valueThe paper highlights the different technology areas and sections of the electronics industry value chain addressed by the four key industry roadmaps.
