SEMI’s “Innovation for a Transforming World” is less than a week away and promises two half-days loaded with technology trends and insights into the digital transformation. Join SEMI and the ESD Alliance Tuesday and Wednesday, July 13-14, from 8:30am-noon PDT to learn more. Of particular interest to our community is a talk from Wally Rhines, always a crowd pleaser, who will discuss “Trends in the Semiconductor Design Ecosystem” from 9:30 am to 10am Wednesday. Wally, Executive Sponsor of the SEMI Electronic Design Market Data (EDMS) report, and President and CEO of Cornami, will review the results of the most recent EDMS report, previously the Market Statistics Survey (MSS). While recent trends in the EDA and IP software market will be his focus, he will outline future directions, areas with the most rapid change and increased purchases of EDA and IP software by systems companies. Significant investment in semiconductor and EDA startups in China and the effect of COVID on design activity will be included in his talk, as will increased importance of EDA for applications such as packaging, AI, machine learning and cybersecurity. The two-day virtual event will feature experts on digital transformation and the market outlook, technology trends and market Indicators and drivers. The first global conference for “Innovation for a Transforming World” will explore an optimal balance of resources for preserving current expertise and customers, while innovating to engage the next technology demands.
Each day will offer a set of best practices that can be applied to all the transformations we’re experiencing. Day one will present ideas for adapting business models, addressing customer needs and digital touch points and the ways the more decentralized world changed innovation. Topics will be of interest to financial and industry analysts, marketing and sales and business development professionals and concentrate on how businesses will thrive through disruption to provide resiliency, vision and culture. Day two is considered a Market Symposium that covers the electronic product supply chain: semiconductor, equipment, design (represented by Wally Rhines, as noted above), packaging, fabs, emerging markets and automotive. The event is open to everyone, though the talks are tailored to senior executives from presidents and CEOs, COOs, CMOs and CTOs to chief data and innovation officers. Member pricing is $249 and non-member pricing is $299.
