Fourth Annual ITAC/Global Semiconductor Alliance Forum

A Strategic Microelectronics Council of ITAC Event

The world just keeps getting more and more complex - especially in the microelectronics industry.  The pace of technological change is increasing, new markets are opening in unexpected spaces and places and competitors are lurking in virtually every corner of the globe.  Executives in our industry must master the persistent demands for innovation in a context characterized by scarcity - scarcity of talent, time and cash. How will your organisation adapt to a world that seems to be expanding and contracting at the same time?

Technology continues to evolve and to present new and exciting opportunities for innovative products and new cost paradigms. For example, organic semiconductors offer the promise of "printed electronics", in ground-breaking flexible form factors and reconfigurable user profiles.

This year's Forum will provide an opportunity for representatives of companies from all parts of the fabless value chain to jointly discuss issues and directions that can make or break tomorrow's business models.

Please register now and join us as speakers from an array of leading global enterprises share their knowledge on today's opportunities and challenges as "The New Normal" impacts all aspects of our businesses and our professional lives.
