The Conference in now closed!

The 2012 Strategic Materials Conference (SMC)  is the only conference dedicated to exploring the synergies, trends and business opportunities in advanced electronic materials.

Accelerated developments in material sciences and applications are occurring more and more—in semiconductors, LEDs, PV, printed electronics, energy storage, and power devices—and these changes present new opportunities for cost reduction and performance enhancement. Many of the innovations and trends in one industry are applicable to other industries, creating potential valuable synergies across the micro- and nano- electronic materials spectrum.

SMC 2012 offers presentations—from leading market analysts, academic researchers, industry consortiums, leading manufacturers, and top suppliers—with an innovative interactive and track-based format. The conference also serves as a valuable forecasting tool and an accelerator for advanced materials usage in the electronics industry.
