🌏 ECOSYSTEM ACCELERATION OF WBG POWER SEMICONDUCTORS AND THE IMPACT TO SOCIETY will be the Theme of the highly anticipated Senior Executive Gathering Exclusively for the Power Semiconductor Manufacturing Community covering major topics in SiC & GaN Technologies will be hosted on September 14-15 in Italy, Lake Maggiore. 🗣️ We welcome Speaker Dr. Marnix Tack - CTO & VP Business Development at BelGaN will deliver a presentation on "BelGaN – Moving to The Next Chapter". Started early 2022 as a new GaN-focused foundry at the heart of Europe, BelGaN announced early August 2023 the production-release of its 1st generation 650V eGaN technology, preparing for ramp-up by end 2023. Meanwhile BelGaN also launched GaN-ValleyTM, grouping over 40 members in a European ecosystem of Academia and Industry along the GaN value chain, to accelerate innovation and scale-up of a GaN industry in Europe and beyond, towards a sustainable electrified future, aligned with the European ambitions of ChipsAct and Green Deal. Exciting times at rocket speed! The presentation will walk through the journey of bringing up BelGaN technology at record speed and will describe status and offering, with a view on the roadmap. It will outline various differentiated services that BelGaN offers to its customers: (1) harvesting innovation (‘Lab-to-Fab’); (2) bringing high quality to our customers’ customers (‘virtual IDM model’), (3) GaN chip design services. Finally, it will give an update on the GaN-ValleyTM status and ambitions. ⭐️ Registration is still open: https://lnkd.in/dhjcrD7a 💥 Key companies in attendance include: Volkswagen Group, Škoda Group, Renault Group, Volvo Group, onsemi, ZF Group, Vitesco Technologies, Ferrari, Wolfspeed, STMicroelectronics, Bosch, KLA, Innoscience, Efficient Power Conversion, Hitachi Energy and many more... #ISESEUPOWER2023 #SemiconductorEvent #WBGPowerSemiconductors #AutomotiveApplications #SemiconductorIndustry #Innovation #SiC #GaN

European Semiconductor Equipment Supplier's Ecosystem. EQUIPMENT SUPPLIERS THRIVE DESPITE EUROPE’S FALLING CHIP SHARE Capital expenditure for chip manufacturing in Europe has increased strongly since 2021. But Europe’s share of worldwide production capacity in square meters of substrate is still falling. Europe has a lot of work to do to increase its share of manufacturing as other regions ramp up their investments. The EU Chips Act – modelled after US policy to establish a domestic supply chain – will attract more investment in leading-edge manufacturing technology, but it will not significantly increase Europe’s market share. However, European equipment suppliers excel in high-growth specialty markets. Equipment suppliers in the EMEA region accounted for 27% of all semiconductor manufacturing equipment—WFE, assembly, and testing—in 2023. US-based firms KLA , Lam Research, and Applied Materials own multiple WFE suppliers, which if included increase the region’s market share to 31%.

The term "Advanced Packaging" undersells the area. You'd be forgiven for thinking "I'm not interested in semiconductor packaging, so advanced packaging is definitely not relevant to me". But I'd ask you to delve a bit deeper. Advanced packaging enables intimate integration of very different layers into a single package - for example a photonic layer with a microelectronic layer - even microfluidics. Not only is it super-flexible, but it comes at a much lower price-point than conventional chip development - to the point where it is in reach of research scientists at universities - where it could stimulate some incredible new experimental and prototype devices.

🚀In June, we will be actively participating in the 2024 Leti Innovation Days organized on 25-27th June by the CEA-Leti in Grenoble, the home of the French “Silicon Valley”. Emmanuel Sabonnadière, EVP for Automotive & Industrial will speak during one of the plenary sessions on the advancements and opportunities that SmartSiC™ brings to #EVs as we ramp up production in our new fab in Bernin! For the past 30 years, we have been at the forefront of designing and manufacturing #semiconductor engineered substrates. By 2030, it is projected that over 45 million cars sold will be EVs and that 50% of them will integrate Silicon Carbide (SiC) into their power electronics. 🔋Our SmartSiC™ engineered substrates represents a new generation of SiC wafers, enhancing the electrical performance and efficiency of power devices, offering  a greener, faster, and superior solution by reducing  CO2 emissions by 70% , accelerating the adoption of 200mm SiC wafers by 2-3 years and improving device-specific on-resistance by up to 30%. We are looking forward to participate join the #semiconductor industry professionals at this three-day global event! Register here 👉 https://lnkd.in/dJk9Rfpj
