Extended supply chain presents new opportunities at SEMICON West

April 20, 2016

San Jose, CA. Leading innovators in today’s integrated electronics supply chain are preparing to showcase their products and services at SEMICON West 2016 on July 12-14 in San Francisco. Attendees will discover new international partners and suppliers, learn about the latest start-ups, and view cutting-edge, critical manufacturing technologies.

The industry has seen dramatic changes since last year’s exposition. Consolidation, IoT, and system integrators increasingly calling the shots have transformed the landscape. Engaging customers and finding new ones have never been more important. SEMICON West 2016 reflects this major realignment—it’s not “business as usual” anymore.

The expanded show floor has been re-engineered to feature megatrend programs and displays, including the Innovation Theater and four new Exhibit Zones: Advanced Substrate Engineering, Advanced Packaging, Sustainable Manufacturing, and 3D Manufacturing. International Pavilions include Europe, Silicon Saxony, and Malaysia.

SEMICON West 2016 also features three new forums: Advanced Manufacturing, Flexible Hybrid Electronics, and the World of IoT. Popular recurring programs include the SEMI/Gartner Market Symposium, “Bulls & Bears,” Connect Executive Summit, plus forums addressing wearables, big data, mobile, automotive, and other areas of interest to players in these supply chains.

SEMICON West 2016 will attract a broader roster of market makers in today’s globally interconnected semiconductor supply chain, including many of the world’s leading electronics companies as well as their customers and suppliers.
