Fresh off the success of our webcast earlier this month, we are set to bring you the virtual 2020 CEO Outlook Wednesday, June 17, beginning at 11 a.m. P.D.T. It will be moderated by Ed Sperling, Semiconductor Engineering’s editor-in-chief, and features six of our Governing Council members. This year’s CEO Outlook participants are Arm’s Simon Segars, Joe Sawicki of Mentor, a Siemens Business, OneSpin’s Raik Brinkmann, John Kibarian from PDF Solutions, Prakash Narain of Real Intent and Silvaco’s Babak Taheri. The format will be similar to previous CEO discussions, though the number of CEOs is larger than normal, and it will be virtual. Of course, questions from attendees will be encouraged and can be submitted throughout the discussion. They will be collated and asked by Ed Sperling or me during the Q&A session at the end of the webcast.  Ed Sperling Please plan to join us Wednesday, June 17, at 10:30 a.m. P.D.T. and be sure to set aside 90 minutes so you don’t miss any of the conversation or attendee questions. The CEOs will have plenty to talk about and the range of topics should appeal to everyone in the electronic system and semiconductor design community. Registration is free of charge. To register, go to: https://bit.ly/3cLUawd A reminder that the recording of the webcast from early May with Jim Hogan, managing partner of Vista Ventures, and Simon Butler of Methodics is available for viewing at no charge. If you haven’t had a chance to look at the webcast, I highly recommend it. As Mike Gianfagna reported on Semiwiki: “I am happy to say that the magic of a Jim Hogan fireside chat does translate to a virtual setting quite well. The event was full of good information about the ESD Alliance, the story of Methodics and a brief but compelling history of the chip design universe that got us here.” It can be found on the ESD Alliance website.
We are planning more webcasts throughout 2020 and welcome your suggestions. Please let me know if you have an idea. I can be reached at bsmith@semi.org.
The Electronic System Design (ESD) Alliance, a SEMI Strategic Technology Community representing members in the electronic system and semiconductor design ecosystem, is a community that addresses technical, marketing, economic and legislative issues affecting the entire industry. It acts as the central voice to communicate and promote the value of the semiconductor design ecosystem as a vital component of the global electronics industry. Information about the variety of ESD Alliance activities is available in the resource center of the website. Again, I can be contacted at bsmith@semi.org.
