Vietnam: An Emerging Force in Asia's Microelectronics Supply Chain

Given the on-going China-U.S. trade tensions, companies have been moving production bases to Vietnam to diversify risk. At the same time, foreign Multinational Corporations (MNCs) have been setting up new manufacturing bases or expanding existing capacities. Vietnam’s political stability and a young, vibrant, and productive middle class, coupled with solid economic growth, means that the country is poised to become the next manufacturing hub of the world. Companies looking to invest in Vietnam can also take advantage of several Free Trade Agreements (FTAs), with many agreements signed through its membership in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the recent RCEP.

The electronics industry, a priority sector set by the Vietnamese government, has impressively developed since 2010.  Vietnam’s active participation in the global integration of electronics manufacturing has enabled it to engage deeply in global value chains. Today, Vietnam is a favourable investment hotspot for the electronics and semiconductor industry, with major MNCs having a manufacturing presence in the country. This webinar brings together speakers from the government, industry park developers, and major MNCs to provide an update on Vietnam’s investment climate, benefits of investing, and sharing of investors’ experiences. The goal is to promote and grow the electronics and semiconductor industry in Vietnam as a compliment to the entire Southeast Asian electronics and semiconductor eco-system.

Who Should Attend

  • Existing companies/investors looking to expand capacities
  • Potential companies/investors looking to set up presence in Southeast Asia/Vietnam
  • Companies/Investors looking to understand and engage the electronics/semiconductor eco-system

High-temperature materials are critical for applications in harsh-environment circuitry, where devices must operate reliably under extreme thermal, chemical, and mechanical stress. In this Master Class, Dr. Shenqiang (Shen) Ren will present a high-throughput ink materials development strategy enabled by non-equilibrium processing and hybrid additive manufacturing. This approach enables rapid synthesis, combinatorial screening, and direct integration of functional materials onto diverse substrates. The resulting materials exhibit strong electrical performance, robust adhesion, and long-term stability under harsh operating conditions. This high-throughput framework accelerates the discovery and deployment of printable materials for interconnects, heaters, and EMI shielding, providing a versatile pathway toward next-generation printed electronics designed for extreme environments.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER

Shenqiang (Shen) Ren, PhD
Dr. Shenqiang Ren is a Professor of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Maryland, College Park, with research interests in emerging functional and structural materials. He received his Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering from the University of Maryland, College Park, and subsequently completed postdoctoral training at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

The semiconductor market will be $1.3 trillion in 2026, $1.9 trillion in 2030, and $3.7 trillion in 2035.

The high growth of the semiconductor market is changing from being driven by generative AI to being driven by agentic AI. Physical AI will also have strong growth in the future, which will further impact the semiconductor market.

New products being developed by semiconductor companies are also allowing AI to address new applications which result in demand for more semiconductors.

The presentation will provide more details on areas of growth, and what does it mean for the semiconductor and electronics industries. And it is also important to monitor the factors that can result in a down phase of the semiconductor industry.
