Navigating geopolitics: Shaping Europe's future

Imec

Anne Van den Bosch, Vice President public R&D policies & programs, will participate as a panelist in the discussion on Pilot Lines in Europe.

Event details

This year’s Industry Strategy Symposium Europe is themed Navigating Geopolitics: Shaping Europe’s Future. The focus this year is on the crossroads of technological innovation and evolving geopolitical dynamics.  

As competition within the semiconductor industry continues to intensify, the need for Europe to strengthen its current position within the global supply  chain is more important than ever but also looking for opportunities to develop new partnerships. The symposium will explore how Europe can forge a unified, competitive, and sustainable semiconductor strategy in a fragmented global landscape and supply chain.

The Industry Strategy Symposium Europe brings together executives and high-level experts to offer microelectronics market forecasts, as well as insights into the latest economic and societal trends, geopolitics, and technologies shaped by the microelectronics industry.
