Our Colleagues, Erik Panu and Hari Viswanathan wrapped up an incredible experience at SEMICON West 2024! This massive event, drawing over 20,000 attendees, was an insight into the future of the global electronics supply chain.

Several key themes emerged in the event:

– Digital Twins Take Center Stage: Talks like “CXO Panel: Can AI/GenAI + Digital Twin Transform Semiconductor Manufacturing?” featuring Samsung’s VP of Technology, Jae-Yong Park, showcased the transformative power of digital twins.

– The Rise of Arizona’s Chip Hub: The University of Arizona’s prominent presence, highlights the growing importance of disciplines like electrical, chemical, and mechanical engineering in this “CHIPS Act” era.

Mark your calendars! SEMICON West will be held in Phoenix, Arizona next year, solidifying its position as a major chip fabrication hub in the US.
