Industry Strategy Symposium (ISS) 2025 sessions open gathering semiconductor industry executives for analysis of growth projections and pivotal business trends for the year ahead. Hosted by SEMI, the symposium program runs through January 15 at the Ritz-Carlton in Half Moon Bay, Calif., examining emerging opportunities and potential headwinds in presentations and collaborative discussions with industry stakeholders, government leaders, and research institutions.
Themed Ready, Set, Ramp!, ISS 2025 spotlights the impact of Artificial Intelligence on the semiconductor ecosystem in its exploration of economic trends, market drivers, geopolitics, workforce development, sustainable practices and technology innovations propelling the industry forward on its path toward $1 trillion in global revenue.
“The ISS 2025 program is geared toward arming semiconductor industry executives with insights to capitalize on the momentum and growth over the past year,” said Joe Stockunas, president of SEMI Americas. “With rapid growth comes added complexity, particularly facing increasingly unpredictable challenges, underscoring the importance of collaboration and learning from each other as we advance closer to our industry’s $1 trillion revenue milestone.”
Central themes for ISS 2025 include:
- Allocating resources for large-scale, industry ramp up
