SEMICON WEST 2007 SET FOR JULY 16-20 IN SAN FRANCISCO
SEMI Announces SEMICON West 2007 Technology Innovation Showcase Competition
Fifth Annual Showcase Will Introduce Innovative New Advanced Manufacturing Technologies to Market
SAN JOSE, Calif. – December 13, 2006 – SEMI has announced the “call for innovations” for the fifth annual Technology Innovation Showcase (TIS) to be held in conjunction with SEMICON West 2007. Submissions will be accepted in the areas of nanotechnology, MEMS, test, assembly, packaging and wafer processing. The application deadline is February 2, 2007.
The TIS highlights innovative companies, inventors and entrepreneurs, while generating greater exposure for their technologies to a broad audience composed of semiconductor manufacturers, suppliers and investors. The three-day event will be held July 17-19, 2007, at the Moscone Convention Center in San Francisco.
“The Technology Innovation Showcase has become one of the most prestigious awards in the semiconductor manufacturing industry, attracting key semiconductor manufacturers and industry executives,” said Vicki Hadfield, president of SEMI North America. “The program helps draw attention to important new technical breakthroughs and innovative processes in advanced manufacturing, ultimately resulting in quicker technological proliferation and faster time to market.”
SEMI welcomes participation by everyone from large companies, individual inventors, start-ups and small to mid-sized businesses (SMB), academia, and research institutions. A wide range of innovations can be found in the TIS, and include entries from MEMS, nanotechnology and energy-focused products such as fuel cells, batteries and photovoltaic cells. All innovations must be new to the semiconductor field, address real problems, and have data validating the innovation. Innovations may not be fully released in the semiconductor market; however, they may be released in other segments.
Innovations and applications submitted for consideration in the competition will be reviewed by judges using a strict set of criteria including technical merit, relevance and significance to the semiconductor industry. Each winner of the competition will be assigned a time slot for a technical presentation and a dedicated booth in a prime location.
For more information, applications and for a complete list of rules and requirements, please visit www.semi.org/tis, or contact Sara Wagner, SEMI North America at 1.408.943.6986; swagner@semi.org.
The SEMICON West exposition has been held annually since 1971 and attracted about 40,800 industry registrants in 2006. The exposition continues to be the global communication platform for the worldwide semiconductor industry.
