SEMICON Korea 2020 Keynotes Highlight the Future of AI
Seoul, South Korea — Semiconductor industry innovators SK hynix, Intel, imec, and Graphcore will kick off SEMICON Korea 2020 with key - notes focusing on the future of artifi- cial intelligence (AI), as an estimated 500 companies and 55,000 visitors gather from February 5 to 7 at the COEX in Seoul for the latest micro- electronics developments, innova- tions and trends powering the next wave of industry growth. Themed “Design the Smarter
Future,” SEMICON Korea 2020 will offer more than 30 technology pro- grams providing leading insights into semiconductor manufacturing, AI, MEMS and sensors, mobility, and metrology and inspection. The event also includes a 2020
market outlook and a workforce development program to educate uni- versity students about career oppor- tunities in semiconductor manufac- turing as the industry works to fill its skills gap. Keynote speakers include: Jin -
kook Kim, executive vice president, SK hynix; Mike Davies, director of Intel’s neuromorphic computing lab; Jan M. Rabaey, CTO of imec’s sys- tem-technology co-optimization divi- sion; and Nigel Toon, CEO and cofounder, Graphcore. Information and communica- tions technologies (ICT) are enabling

on diversity and inclusion, with new programming and partnerships. The “Innovation for All” conference pro- gram included chief diversity officers and leaders from Bosch, HP and Walmart, and explored inclusive ways that D&I is contributing to the bottom line, shifting culture, hiring different- ly, and investing in diversity. CES was revved up with the
future of transportation. Nine of the world’s leading car manufacturers, including Audi, BMW, Daimler (Mercedes), FCA, Ford, Honda, Hyun - dai, Nissan, and Toyota, and more than 150 vehicle tech exhibitors unveiled the latest in connected cars, self-driving vehicles and concept cars. Products included the Mercedes Vision AVTR concept car, Audi’s AI:ME and the Sony Vision S. The CES stage saw more than
1,100 speakers representing major global industries, including keynotes from Samsung president and CEO of consumer electronics division Hyun- Suk Kim, Daimler chairman Ola Källenius, Delta Air Lines CEO Ed Bastian, U.S. Secretary of Transpor - tation Elaine L. Chao, Salesforce chair- man and co-CEO Marc Benioff, and Presidential Advisor Ivanka Trump. “We hosted 40 CEOs and corpo-
rate directors here, and over half were attending CES for the very first time,” said Nichole Jordan, central region managing partner, Grant Thornton and member of the CTA Board of Industry Leaders. “As we debriefed, they said this show, this experience, helps them to reimagine their businesses and their futures.” CES returns to Las Vegas from
January 6 to 9, 2021.
Join Us to Celebrate 20 Years of IPC APEX EXPO!
The pursuit of excellence in electronics is year-round. But during IPC APEX EXPO 2020, the focus of the electronics industry will be on how collectively, we can elevate all aspects of our industry and the products we create.
Together, we'll celebrate the 20th Anniversary of IPC APEX EXPO, explore innovative ideas and share our experiences, all with an eye toward a future driven by success.
Plan now to elevate your excellence in San Diego at IPC APEX EXPO 2020.
ELEVATE THE EXCELLENCE OF ELECTRONICS
a smarter world that is spawning vast amounts of data that require advanced memory. In a presentation “Semiconductor Technology for the Future ICT World,” Kim will discuss how SK hynix is developing solutions to meet computing’s growing demand for low-power, high-capacity, high- speed memory to process this data. Delivering faster speeds and
lower power than traditional semi- conductors, neuromorphic chips are key for on-device AI data processing. With Intel transforming into a data- driven company with a keener focus
on technologies like AI, Davies will explore “Neuromorphic Computing for Future Breakthroughs in AI,” while revealing more about Intel’s shift in strategic direction. While the bulk of the interest
and investment in AI has centered on cloud AI, excitement is growing around the promises of edge comput- ing. Rabaey will discuss pathways for edge computing and recommend ways to fulfill its potential in his presentation “The Cognitive Edge.” The amount of compute re - quired to train complex AI models
has grown by 300,000 times, since 2012. Compute gains have been a key component of AI progress and the industry is now preparing for the implications of systems far outside today’s capabilities. Toon will identi- fy drivers of the huge appetite for more AI compute and describe how Graphcore’s IPU technology scales to meet this demand. Contact: SEMI, 673 S. Milpitas
