Automotive Chiplet Alliance Conference

On October 10 and 11, representatives from all corners of the automotive ecosystem meet up for the fourth time to discuss how to jointly tackle the inevitable evolution towards chiplet architectures in cars. This is the first time the conference is being held in the U.S., near the home of the automotive industry, which is a testament to how this initiative unites the automotive ecosystem.

The two-day event is organized by STAR, a semiconductor automotive ecosystem powered by imec. This October event is hosted by KLA Corporation. Participants will come from leading OEMs, Tier 1s and Tier 2s, IDMs and foundries, IP and tool vendors, software companies, outsourced semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT) suppliers and design houses.

We sincerely hope you can join us and take part in the discussion.
