Join us for a groundbreaking Midwest conference and tradeshow on April 1-2, 2025, focused on Smart Manufacturing and Smart Mobility with an emphasis on the semiconductor industry! Automotive electronics and smart manufacturing are two of the key end markets on the path to $1T in semiconductor revenue.
A significant amount of both markets is concentrated in the Midwestern United States. SEMIEXPO in the Heartland will bring these two key markets together and provide an opportunity for collaboration and growth.
Smart Manufacturing
- The program will focus on the deployment of Industry 4.0 or Smart Manufacturing tools, technologies, and methods for the semiconductors required for this growing market.
Smart Mobility
- The program will unite stakeholders in the semiconductors/sensors and mobility ecosystems to identify and address technical issues and supply chain dynamics that are best addressed collectively.
