MILPITAS, CA – The first SEMI Global Smart Manufacturing Conference will gather Industry 4.0 experts Oct. 20-23 to share best known methods for improving data capture and analysis in microelectronics manufacturing.

The SEMI Global Smart Manufacturing Conference will feature six sessions on three topics – sensing, connecting and predicting – and experts from companies including BisTEL, Bosch, Broadcom, Deloitte, Doople, Micron, Schneider Electric, Texas Instruments, TDK and Yamaha. Each day features two live sessions.

“There is a growing need across the world for more insights on effective smart manufacturing strategies and tools that lead to high ROI,” said Bobby Mitra, Ph.D., IEEE Fellow, worldwide director of Smart Manufacturing at Texas Instruments and chair of the SEMI Smart Manufacturing Americas Chapter. “The first SEMI Global Smart Manufacturing Conference will bring together global experts with real-world experience who will outline the critical concepts in each smart manufacturing domain with best practices and returns.”

“The microelectronics industry’s urgency to drive greater manufacturing efficiencies has never been greater, as foundational production technologies remain key enablers of advances in artificial intelligence, 5G, machine learning and other smart technologies that promise to help the world overcome some of its greatest challenges, including the current Covid-19 pandemic,” said Tom Salmon, vice president of Collaborative Technology Platforms and lead of the Smart Manufacturing Initiative at SEMI. “With the sharp reductions in worldwide air travel, SEMI is taking the lead with a virtual conference that will connect microelectronics manufacturing customers with solution providers via a new AI engine to provide a novel method of information sharing and networking that could be more effective than a face-to-face event.”

Registration for the virtual conference, featuring keynotes, case studies and tutorials, is open. For more information, visit https://www.semi.org/en/connect/events/smart-manufacturing-global-conference-2020.
