ESGS 2026 to Drive Innovation Across the Electronic Gases Ecosystem

Industry Experts Will Address Market Drivers, Advanced Materials, Gas Systems, Metrology and Sustainability for Semiconductor Manufacturing

MILPITAS, Calif. – September 22, 2026 – The Electronic Specialty Gases & Systems Conference (ESGS) 2026 will bring together leaders across the electronic gases value chain November 10-12, 2026, at the Hyatt Regency Phoenix in Arizona. Under the theme Driving Innovation Across the Electronic Gases Ecosystem, the event will explore the market dynamics, technology requirements and supply chain developments shaping semiconductor manufacturing. Registration is open.

ESGS provides a forum for executives, buyers, product managers and strategic planners from electronic gas end users, producers and equipment suppliers to exchange insights on the bulk, rare and specialty gases essential to continued electronics industry growth. The program will connect business outlooks with technical advances in vapor-phase materials, gas delivery and control, contamination management, analytical metrology and emissions reduction.

The three-day program will feature keynote presentations, policy and market updates, technical sessions and networking opportunities focused on the following areas:

• Semiconductor market trends, public policy and the outlook for wafer fabrication equipment
• Advanced vapor-phase materials and specialty gas applications
• Gas systems challenges as device scaling and process complexity increase
• Emerging deposition and etch chemistries for next-generation devices
• Supply chain resilience across bulk, rare and specialty gases
• Analytical metrology, contamination control, emissions abatement and sustainability

Featured speakers include:

• Joe Stockunas, President, SEMI Americas
• Bruce Gall, Strategic Partnerships, Google
• Berc Kalanyan, Research Chemical Engineer, National Institute of Standards and Technology
• Gustavo Albuquerque, PTD Gas Systems Engineer, Intel
• David Mandia, Ph.D., Staff Process Engineer, Lam Research
• Feng Li, Senior R&D Manager, Air Liquide Advanced Materials
• Rachel Potter, Vice President, Specialty Gases, EMD Electronics

Mike Corbett, Managing Partner at Linx Consulting, will open the conference. Additional presentations will examine metrology program developments, advanced gas-system requirements, molybdenum deposition, solid precursor delivery, specialty-gas supply chain considerations and new chemistries for demanding semiconductor applications.

The program will also provide opportunities for participants across the electronic gases ecosystem to connect on shared technical, market and sustainability challenges. View the full ESGS 2026 agenda and register.
