semiconductor manufacturing

ISS Europe 2023 speakers focused on the influence of the EU Chips Act on the strategic direction of Europe’s semiconductor industry through 2030 and the legislation’s potential as a powerful instrument to strengthen Europe’s semiconductor industry.

The tech industry is currently undergoing a cultural transformation, driven by the growing recognition of the importance of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) in the workplace. Companies are increasingly being held accountable for their actions.

Comet Yxlon provides X-ray and  computed tomography (CT) inspection solutions for R&D labs and production environments, including semiconductor manufacturing facilities, to enhance their productivity.

Along with two experts on sustainability from Mercuri Urval, I have drafted a quick-read White Paper on finding Sustainability Initiative leaders. Below are a few highlights from the white paper with the entire paper available on our Sustainability Initiative website.

Despite its great promise to help streamline semiconductor manufacturing, AI has largely failed to deliver on its potential despite significant investments in data infrastructure and talent. Understanding the reasons behind this failure is a critical step towards unlocking AI and associated ROI.

Coming in the wake of the COP27, the Smart and Green Manufacturing Summit at SEMICON Europa 2022 (Munich, 15-17 November) had a timely focus on the semiconductor industry’s contribution to meeting the United Nations’ target of limiting global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.

With the emergence of consolidation as a potent engine of semiconductor industry growth, global mergers and acquisitions are sweeping the industry as companies look to accelerate advances across segments including data centers, AI, IoT and automotive chips.

AI can potentially deliver the semiconductor industry operational gains of $85-$95 billion annually in earnings before interest by 2025. In reality, roughly 90% of this figure remains theoretical.

Companies of all sizes—not just industry juggernauts—are vital to the long-term health and well-being of that ecosystem. We hope you’ll stake your claim when the time comes. We all stand to benefit if you do.

SEMI spoke with Claire HyunJung Seo, Corporate Vice President in the Device Solutions (DS) Corporate Sustainability Management Office at Samsung Electronics ahead of her keynote at the SEMI Smart and Green Manufacturing Summit held last week during SEMICON Europa 2022.
