2016FLEX Europe to be held in conjunction with SEMICON Europa
Grenoble, France. SEMI has announced that a new 2016FLEX Europe conference will be held in conjunction with SEMICON Europa held in Grenoble, France, October 25-27. With a focus on “Building the Innovation Ecosystem for Flexible Electronics,” the new 2016FLEX Europe (formerly Plastic Electronics) expands its focus and increases the depth of coverage, now led by FlexTech, SEMI’s strategic association partner.
Materials and equipment for the semiconductor industry remain the core of SEMICON Europa 2016, while 2016FLEX, the world’s largest conference with exhibitions in the field of flexible, large-scale and organic electronics, brings a growth segment to SEMICON Europa. A few opportunities to exhibit remain available. The conference sessions at 2016FLEX Europe will address advancements in materials, processing methods, and market demands and expectations.
SEMICON Europa, in parallel with 2016FLEX Europe, provides a platform in Europe focused on integrating silicon electronics onto flexible, printed substrates. SEMICON Europa 2014, the first in Grenoble, was the largest SEMICON Europa in the past five years. SEMI is building on the momentum, offering attendees access to the full electronics supply chain and beyond. The combined event is expected to attract over 5,500 attendees from equipment and material suppliers, IC manufacturers, system integrators, and end users. Special programs this year—on advanced and smart manufacturing (Industry 4.0), power electronics, imaging, and electronics and materials for the medical and automotive applications—will give attendees insight into possible applications and manufacturing solutions for flexible, printed, and hybrid electronics. In all, the SEMICON Europa 2016 conference program includes over 40 trade conferences and discussion forums.
