In a flash last March, employees worked from home, and teleconferencing became a way of life. Executives adopted new guidelines and ensured employees had the proper technology and secure networks to be productive. The workforce adapted, engineers are designing around the world around the clock, and employers are more open to where people work.
Learn about—
Increased productivity
New physical office space setup
Using the cloud to overcome technology issues
Corporate travel
Plus more
Learn why some companies offer more flexibility for employees to work from home at least part of the time. Also, why others may not require new employees to re-locate; perhaps something technology has made easier.
The co-hosts, ESD Alliance and Accellera are looking beyond the pandemic as companies start bringing employees back to the office. A panel of experts explores an executive view and strategies of how the transition from remote work back to the office will unfold.

Understanding Export Regulations Affecting the Electronic System Design Ecosystem
The world of export compliance is increasingly complex and perplexing. No one in the electronic system design ecosystem knows this better than Larry Disenhof, ESD Alliance Export Committee Chair and Group Director of Cadence's Export Compliance and Government Relations.
Join us on Wednesday, September 15, 2021 at 9am PDT to:
Hear Larry's perspective and invaluable insights into today's export climate.
Learn how to navigate export regulations.
Larry's expertise on behalf of ESD Alliance's Export Committee is a valued resource for our members. The committee represents the electronic system design ecosystem in Washington, D.C., with agencies overseeing export regulations and other regulatory organizations. Its goal is to educate government agencies about our products and how they are classified in the Commerce Control List to ensure the correct level of export controls are applied. It also serves to educate our members on export and other government regulatory issues affecting our industry and each company's ability to sell and support its products.
Attendees can expect Larry to present up-to-the-minute and easily understood information about the changeable export landscape, followed by a live Q&A session.

The ESD Alliance, a SEMI Technology Community, and the SEMI Foundation are collaborating with VLSI System Design to promote VSDOpen 2020, a virtual conference being presented on October 10, 2020.
VLSI System Design provides global online training courses that teach students semiconductor chip design. SEMI recognizes workforce development as one of the most critical needs facing the semiconductor industry. The ESD Alliance and SEMI Foundation are promoting this event as part of SEMI’s broad mission to accelerate workforce development for our industry.
VSDOpen 2020 is a one-day virtual online event featuring three keynote speakers (Jan Rabaey – UC Berkeley, Naveed Sherwani – SiFive and Michael Wishart – eFabless). In addition, the conference will showcase semiconductor IP designed by students, education, research demonstrations, and networking opportunities for designers, researchers, tool developers, and students.
There is no charge to attend VSDOpen 2020. Click the button below to learn more about the event and to register.

Future mobility disruptions include the development of autonomous and connected vehicles, electric powertrains, and shared mobility solutions. These trends will shape and impact the semiconductor design value chain:
The development of autonomous vehicles will impact chip design, verification, and IP through demand for high-performance computing, connectivity, functional safety, security, and reliability.
Software-rich automotive solution-specific EDA products will serve the needs of automotive OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers to accelerate R&D, verification, and testing.
Partnerships in the semiconductor value chain will play an important role to make these mobility disruptions reality. Suppliers in the design ecosystem could partner on system architecture, design, development, and verification
Join McKinsey & Company and SEMI's Electronic System Design Alliance at this webinar to learn about emerging new opportunities in Design and IP being driven by the rapid growth and disruptions in the global automotive markets and supply chains.

Jim and Simon will take their audience on a stroll through the story of a fledgling, bootstrapped startup that’s become a profitable player in a new category called IP Lifecycle Management — IPLM, for short — targeting chip designers.
With Jim navigating, they will explore Simon’s vision and reasons why Methodics pursued this application space. Audience members will learn how Methodics expanded the definition of product lifecycle management (PLM) in the Enterprise Software segment into IPLM for a design-centric view of the semiconductor IP lifecycle. Along the way, as they will explain, Methodics became profitable and paved PLM’s “last mile,” allowing for the completion of the “digital thread” from system design all the way to the semiconductor level.
