Semiconductors power the technologies that define our modern world – from smartphones and electric vehicles to renewable energy systems, advanced medical devices, and the most powerful AI supercomputers. Optical solutions play a critical role in semiconductor manufacturing - from high accuracy wafer stages to laser control for lithography systems, optical metrology and inspection.

As chip performance increases, the demands on semiconductor equipment rise accordingly. This brings additional challenges on optical components performance, supply chain resilience and efficiency. This online panel discussion will explore how the semiconductor industry is evolving to meet these demands – with expansive product portfolios and consultative processes to ensure that customers’ needs are met. Industry experts will examine innovations in materials science, strategies for scaling production, the collaborations needed to maintain global competitiveness and how to choose the right supplier.

Howard Rupprecht, Managing Director at CSconnected, will be speaking on this panel.
