SEMI announced that the virtual Industry Strategy Symposium (ISS) 2021will take place Jan. 12-13, 2021 with the theme, Bridging the Gap Between the Physical and Digital Worlds.
ISS will be the year’s first executive check-in, offering insights from leading analysts, economists, policymakers and technologists on major forces impacting the semiconductor industry. The annual symposium gives business leaders an insightful view of growth trends and industry intelligence, helping ensure that their company business plans and forecasts are based on current market conditions.
The COVID-19 pandemic is accelerating the digital transformation as the microelectronics industry looks ahead to historic growth opportunities with the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, the Internet of Things (IoT) and other cutting-edge technologies that are reshaping how we work and live in a hyper-connected world. The latest market insights are vital for business leaders to hatch new innovations and business models that will drive the next wave of industry growth.
“ISS is the premier venue for imagining the future and turning among the best economic, market, geopolitical and technology insights into actionable intelligence and business opportunities,” said David Anderson, president of SEMI Americas and host of ISS. “This COVID-19 pandemic has shown that – from working from home to developing a vaccine at unprecedented speed – creating the solutions to the greatest challenges will take all of us, working together, as we continue to blur the lines between the physical and digital worlds.”
