Please Note: With regrets, we are postponing the “Energy Policy and Strategy for the IoT Era,” the panel on the new energy rules for PCs from the California Energy Commission Thursday, March 23, due to unforeseen circumstances. Stay tuned for updates.
After listening to our members who told us they missed the yearly CEO forecast, it’s a pleasure to let you know the ESD Alliance is bringing back an evening with the leaders of our industry. The 2017 CEO Outlook will be held Thursday, April 6, from 6:30pm until 8:45pm at Synopsys in Mountain View, Calif. A private reception for ESD Alliance members only to mingle with speakers will begin at 5:30pm. Four of our industry’s most visible CEOs will discuss their views on the future of the system design ecosystem in what promises to be a wide-ranging and enlightening panel discussion. The four panelists for the evening are: Aart de Geus from Synopsys, Lip-Bu Tan of Cadence, ARM’s Simon Segars and Wally Rhines of Mentor Graphics. Each will share his views on where the semiconductor industry and system design ecosystem are heading, review trends and point out potential opportunities and danger signs ahead. After brief opening statements about the future of the industry, an interactive audience discussion will follow. And who better to moderate the discussion than Ed Sperling, editor in chief of Semiconductor Engineering? For those of you who don’t know Ed, he is a long-time chronicler of the EDA, IP and semiconductor industry. His knowledge of the system design ecosystem runs the gamut of business to technology and methodologies. The panel is open free of charge to all ESD Alliance member companies. Non-members are invited to attend for a fee of $25. Because seating is limited, please register today. More details and registration information can be found at: http://conta.cc/2m1ESxf |
