As the ESD Alliance moves forward to become a SEMI Strategic Association Partner, we’re setting our sights on the inaugural Design Ecosystem Pavilion™ at SEMICON West 2019 in San Francisco’s Moscone Center July 9-11. We’re working from a clean, smudge-free whiteboard to create a new area designated for our Design Ecosystem Pavilion in Moscone South, a dedicated platform to showcase design from IP and EDA to embedded software and design services and more. By hosting the Design Ecosystem Pavilion during SEMICON West, SEMI brings together the entire electronics product chain through a variety of topical programs and tracks and fill out its mission to include the whole electronic product manufacturing chain. Better yet, the Design Ecosystem Pavilion gives the Design and Design Automation Ecosystem™ a chance to design a forum to meet our community’s exact needs. We hope you will help us create a vibrant community event that highlights all of the cutting-edge technology the Design and Design Automation Ecosystem has to offer. As we observed a few weeks ago, SEMICON West featured a host of topics relevant to the Design and Design Automation Ecosystem, from AI, IoT and Blockchain to Smart Data, Smart Transportation and Smart Manufacturing. And, that’s in addition to its traditional topics of semiconductor design and manufacturing.
Please contact Julie Rogers, the ESD Alliance’s director of marketing and operations, or me with suggestions and questions regarding the Design Ecosystem Pavilion. We have plenty of information about exhibit options, sponsorship opportunities, and welcome ideas you have on how to make the inaugural Design Ecosystem Pavilion a great success. The ESD Alliance and SEMI are listening to the Design and Design Automation Ecosystem and creating an environment and event that meets its needs. This is a unique time we have to exchange ideas and promote technological progress. After all … Design is Where Electronics Begins! … and the Design and Design Automation Ecosystem is moving to SEMI’s SEMICON West. Exhibit space signup is open now.
