SCALING INTELLIGENCE: FROM SENSING SOLUTIONS TO VALUE CREATION

MSIG Logo

As sensing technologies continue to advance, the focus is shifting beyond component performance gains or integration alone—toward how innovation translates into sensing solutions. MSTC 2026 centers on this evolution, highlighting how contributions across the MEMS and sensors ecosystem—from specialized devices to advanced algorithms—enabling scalable intelligence and real-world impactful solutions.  There is no physical AI without sensors!

MSTC 2026 brings together leaders from industry, academia, and startups to explore how advances in sensing technologies are being transformed into actionable solutions and business outcomes. The program spans the full value chain—from device-level innovation to deployment and commercialization, from edge AI to robotics to wearables—while enabling organizations to showcase their unique contributions to the broader ecosystem.

You will

  • LEARN the latest industry methods for designing, building, and using sensors. 
  • DISCOVER new market opportunities, applications, and drivers. 
  • HEAR insightful presentations from industry leaders, experts, and peers.  

Sessions will explore key areas driving the future of intelligent sensing, including—

  • Sensor Intelligence & Edge AI
  • Market Forecast and Technology Trends
  • Autonomy & Robotics  
  • Biomedical & Wearables  
  • Quantum, Magnetic & Ultra-Precise Sensing  
  • Environmental Sensing  
     

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

  • Technologists (including CTOs, Vice-President, Directors)
  • Engineers and Engineering Management 
    Research & Development | Design | System | Process | Applications | Fabrication | Test | Integration | Hardware | Software
  • Sensor Customers | End Users | OEMs
  • Consortiums

How to Thrive and Accelerate Your Growth in the Semiconductor Industry 

As we celebrate 10 years of Women in Semiconductor, this milestone event invites you to reflect on the progress made while boldly charting your path forward. In an industry where women remain underrepresented, success requires both strategic navigation and authentic leadership.

Through dynamic sessions, we will explore how to intentionally shape a career defined by influence and impact—on your own terms. Together, we’ll examine the realities of navigating a male-dominated industry and share practical strategies to build influence, expand opportunities, and lead with confidence.

At the core of this experience is the development of your personal leadership toolbox—a curated set of skills, relationships, insights, and decision-making frameworks designed to accelerate your growth. You’ll learn how to cultivate meaningful allyship, strengthen the competencies that set you apart, and proactively create opportunities rather than waiting for them.

Join us for this special anniversary as we celebrate a decade of progress and issue a call to action for the future. You’ll leave with practical resources, empowering insights, and a renewed sense of purpose—equipped to thrive authentically and shape the future of the semiconductor industry with confidence and clarity.

Who attends WiS? Company leaders, managers, team members, HR professionals, academia and students. We encourage attendance by everyone who is interested in building a stronger, more dynamic semiconductor ecosystem, and by anyone who is responsible for developing internal or external programs to support women. 

"Attending the Women in Semiconductor Conference was an incredibly empowering experience. There is something uniquely impactful about coming together with other women who understand the challenges and opportunities of our industry. The conference created space for honest conversations, meaningful networking, and a sense of community. It is a reminder that we are not alone, and that together, we can drive change and support one another in powerful ways." (WiS 2025 attendee)

Please stay tuned for additional programs in 2026. We look forward to your participation.
