Technology inflections such as 5G wireless, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, cloud computing, and machine learning are driving the long-term demand for the chip industry. SEMI Smart Initiatives facilitate innovation and foster collaboration across the global electronics design and manufacturing supply chain around fast-growing vertical market segments including Mobility, Manufacturing, Data-AI, and MedTech.

SMART Mobility
The Smart Mobility initiative brings together a community of semiconductor and automotive companies and their suppliers to identify and address technical issues and supply chain dynamics that are best addressed collectively. Participation helps you drive innovation in the autonomous, electric, connected, and shared mobility market which is projected to grow at a CAGR of 20+%, more than twice the total semiconductor market.

SMART MANUFACTURING
The Smart Manufacturing Initiative helps electronic manufacturers build the next generation of Autonomous Smart Factories with a focus on green practices and workforce development in the future. Through the deployment of Industry 4.0 technologies, member companies have the potential to realize over 10% improvements across many manufacturing facility specific KPIs like productivity, agility, and sustainability. Leading with an ecosystem approach, the initiative reduces barriers and speeds time to ROI, by facilitating awareness, adoption, and collective problem-solving through global educational forums, networking, benchmarking readiness assessment tools, and standards activities.

SMART DATA-AI
The Smart Data-AI Initiative provides a platform to accelerate AI adoption across the microelectronics industry and help members capture $10 Trillion worth of economic opportunity this decade. This initiative provides access to global educational forums, collaborative platforms, and standards activities to facilitate the best-known methods for implementing AI technologies in semiconductor operations.

SMART MEDTECH
The Smart MedTech initiative synchronizes the semiconductor and medical device supply chains to promote valuable interactions and identify technology gaps through R&D funding programs, global SEMICON platforms, gaps analysis workshops, and education initiatives. Participation can help you accelerate collective solutions and capture the revenue opportunity from the exponential growth of the Smart MedTech sector – which is forecasted to see a CAGR of 26% through 2026.
