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.

Indoor air quality is essential for human well-being, and the concentration of various gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2) is a good indicator of it. However, today's state of the art CO2 sensor solutions are bulky, limiting their adoption at scale. Thanks to the advancement in technology, the Photo Acoustic Principle (PAS) can be miniaturized and be used to detect gas concentrations at ppm level. A new era of smaller gas sensors will enable the scalability of numerous use-cases that impact our quality of life in indoor spaces, ranging from more efficient ventilation systems to even reducing the risk of COVID-19 transmission. To facilitate the adoption of this new technology, complete system solutions are being requested by device manufacturers to quickly deploy the sensors for optimal interoperation of distributed systems.

TinyML: Massive Opportunity When Machine Intelligence Meets the Real World of Billions of Sensors
Recent progress in computing hardware, machine learning algorithms and networks and availability of large datasets for model training have created a strong momentum in development and wide deployment of game changing AI applications. Intelligent devices with human-like senses have enabled a variety of new use cases and applications transforming the way we interact with each other and our surroundings. Dedicated hardware becomes tiny and very energy efficient (with mW or less power consumption), algorithms and models - smaller (down to 10s of kB of memory requirements), software – lighter down to deployment on deeply embedded platforms. This enormous technology innovative wave and fast growing tinyML ecosystem create a strong momentum towards new applications and business opportunities. On the other side of the physical world spectrum, MEMS and other sensors are becoming more sophisticated, sense a variety of modalities (vision, sound, environmental, motion/vibrations, etc.) and are being deployed in billions every day. The “collision” of these two powerful driving forces, tinyML and tiny smart sensors, establishes a unique opportunity for edge computing and on-device analytics that will be happening everywhere and anytime. As an end result, this will create a better, healthier and more sustainable environment for all.
This presentation will review the state-of-the-art of tinyML (including hardware, algorithmic and software framework aspects), describe some practical examples of technologies and products pioneered at Qualcomm and else, and discusses near-term trends and opportunities, as well as call to actions.

Berkeley Lights: MEMS Technology to Enable a Scalable and Sustainable Cell-Based Future
Berkeley Lights is a leading Digital Cell Biology company focused on enabling and accelerating the rapid development and commercialization of biotherapeutics and other cell-based products. The Berkeley Lights Platform captures deep phenotypic, functional, and genotypic information for thousands of single cells in parallel and can also deliver the live biology customers desire in the form of the best cells. This is a new way to capture and interpret the qualitative language of biology and translate it into single-cell specific digital information, referred to as Digital Cell Biology. We currently focus on enabling the large and rapidly growing markets of antibody therapeutics, cell therapy and synthetic biology with our platform. Our goal is to establish the Berkeley Lights Platform as the standard throughout the cell-based product value chain by increasing the probability of successful product development for our customers.
Since early February when COVID-19 became more prevalent, Berkeley Lights Inc. prioritized helping its customers who are actively involved in finding a cure for COVID-19. With the Berkeley Lights Platform, our customers can execute our workflows at early time points, to provide one of the fastest paths to functionally validated antibodies. Although the spike protein isn’t a particularly hard target to find antibodies for, sometimes being fast and finding the best cells matters.
The time is now to think ahead and invest in solutions, putting the technology and systems in place that are ready to fight the next virus wherever it appears before it becomes a pandemic. We believe that the speed and ability to respond to emerging pathogens can be dramatically improved by deploying our solution globally, to recover antibodies directly from recovering patients from the initial outbreak for rapid development into therapeutics or to accelerate the development of vaccines.

Due to the recent COVID-19 outbreak, Elevated Body Temperature (EBT) screening is being deployed as a tool and help limit the spread of the disease. To be effective and allow wide-scale use, EBT screening equipment requires high accuracy and precision as well as low system and operation cost. The low cost and high performance of microbolometer cameras make them an obvious choice for EBT systems. This technology is expected to have long term use, even after COVID-19, and will expand into new markets. Opportunities in commercial, residential and personal device application will be discussed, along with the anticipated trends for higher volume, lower cost and increased integration.

Highly Accurate and Scalable Electrical Detection-Based Sequencing on CMOS Chips
COVID-19 has brought the limitations of life science to solve problems into a global focus. Cardea is a Tech+Bio Infrastructure company that mends the missing link between biology and technology by creating a direct electronic connection between molecular signals and computers. This is a fundamental paradigm shift in life science as, until now, it’s mostly been based on optical systems that produces one-dimensional data-sets. With the biocompatible nanomaterial graphene, Cardea mass-produces proprietary Biology-gated Transistors, or Cardean Transistors™, that, when combined with versatile hardware and cloud-based computational power (such as machine learning and artificial intelligence), can provide virtually live insight to life and biology. Together with their Innovation Partners, Cardea is building a new generation of “Powered by Cardea” products and applications that will enable humanity to finally gain control over complex problems of health, environmental safety, food security and much more.
