SEMICON West 2022 Hybrid opens tomorrow at the Moscone Center in San Francisco as more than 200 industry leaders, visionaries and technology experts gather for insights into critical microelectronics industry trends. July 12-14 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, SEMICON West 2022 Hybrid will spotlight topics including sustainability, smart technologies and digital transformation while addressing key themes including workforce development, government investment in chip manufacturing and heterogeneous integration. Registration is open for both the live and virtual programs.
The event, North America’s premier exhibition and conference for the microelectronics supply chain, will feature on-site keynotes and executive panels with thought leaders from the semiconductor ecosystem, academia and government.
The Global Sustainability Summit will debut at SEMICON West 2022 Hybrid to help drive the collaboration necessary for the semiconductor industry to reduce its carbon footprint. Co-hosted by SEMI and McKinsey & Company, the summit comes as semiconductor ecosystem companies are increasingly committing to sustainability targets. In parallel, SEMI member companies are joining forces with startups to enable a greener chip industry as part of the SEMI Sustainability Initiative.
