ITF Chip into the Future

Investing in semiconductors is investing in economic resilience. This principle lies at the heart of the EU Chips Act and its initiatives, such as the NanoIC project – hosted by imec – and the other European pilot lines.

This means the ambition goes beyond technological advancement. It’s about ensuring that fundamental innovations are effectively adopted by industry to generate tangible impact on both the economy and society.

How does this work out in practice? What will be the effect of semiconductor breakthroughs such as advanced logic nodes, 3D integration and integrated photonics on applications domains from health to quantum chips, automotive and security? And which steps need to be taken to bridge the gap between research and manufacturing?

These are some of the questions we will explore together at ITF SEMICON Europa.
