SEMI spoke with Prof. Owen J. Guy, Head of Chemistry and Education Lead at the Centre for Integrative Semiconductor Materials at Swansea University, about the challenge of onboarding talent within the microelectronics industry and the importance of the SEMI Talent Forum ahead of the May 30 event.

In February 2020, the European Commission published its initial proposal – White Paper on Artificial Intelligence: a European approach to excellence and trust – and opened a stakeholder consultation. In June, SEMI Europe, based on member feedback, made key policy recommendations in response.

SEMI spoke with Michael Strübin, Director of Digital Health at MedTech Europe, about how healthcare systems are moving towards a sustainable path through improvements in areas such as prevention of illness, patient empowerment, lean systems and low-carbon alternatives.

SEMI spoke with Andy Collins, manager at Quantum Technology Enterprise Centre (QTEC), ahead of the SEMI Talent Forum (2-3 May, 2019, in Bristol, UK) about the impact of emerging technologies on the future of work in the semiconductor industry.

Last month the European Commission (EC) approved €1.75 billion in public support from France, Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom (UK) to fund the joint European microelectronics project, which brings together businesses across Europe to spur innovation in IoT and connected car technologies.
