With the rise of generative AI driving demand for advanced chips and memory semiconductors to process and store massive amounts of data, the stage is set for SEMICON Korea 2024, opening tomorrow at COEX in Seoul to highlight innovations shaping the future. Themed Innovation Beyond Boundaries, SEMICON Korea 2024 will take aim at collaborations and innovations critical to manufacturing semiconductors demanded by advanced applications.
The region's premier microelectronics event, SEMICON Korea 2024 is expected to draw record attendance of 70,000 as 500 companies showcase the latest semiconductor manufacturing technologies. The event will host 30 technology and business conferences featuring more than 200 visionaries and experts as speakers. Opportunities to connect and explore new collaborations will also be a key feature for attendees.
The need for greater global semiconductor industry collaboration continues as players from across the chip ecosystem explore ways to overcome some of the world’s biggest technology challenges, including harnessing the power of semiconductors to manage generative AI and other data-hungry applications. South Korea is vital in this effort, with major semiconductor equipment companies such as ASML, Applied Materials, Lam Research, and TEL establishing R&D centers in the region. At the same time, Korea’s memory leaders Samsung and SK hynix, as well as the region’s equipment, materials and parts enterprises, are uncovering new collaboration opportunities.
