MEMS & Sensors Industry Group Conference Asia 2017: Creating and Capturing Value in the MEMS and Sensors Ecosystem

Date: Thursday, March 16, 2017
Venue: Pudong Ballroom 5+6+7, Kerry Hotel Pudong, Shanghai

MEMS and sensors: opportunities and challenges exist together
MEMS and sensors are already ubiquitous. Companies in the MEMS and sensors supply chain are plentiful, competitive, and innovative. As threats of commoditization, consolidation and competition increase, the impetus to gain as much value from MEMS and sensors is increasing. This is even more present in China, where the pace of commercialization is accelerating. Companies are positioning themselves as both hardware and software providers, selling chips along with the algorithms and sensor fusion to enable system integration, maximize value, and remain competitive. Sensor companies are also looking for opportunities to exploit the data analytics of sensor data and participate in that revenue potential. Understanding how to create and capture the value in the MEMS and sensors ecosystem is becoming increasingly important – everywhere in the world – including China.
We will discuss what concerns you
How do companies innovate to make integration easier and create higher revenues? What verticals provide the biggest opportunity for growth? What challenges to value exist across the markets? Which companies are blazing the trail for innovation and revenue generation and how are they doing it? How can traditional semiconductor companies also participate in this explosive growth of MEMS & Sensors, particularly in the Internet of Things? What is unique to the Chinese ecosystem?
Now is the time to increase collaboration, innovation, investment and understanding of MEMS and sensors’ diverse value-add. Speakers at this one-day conference presented by MEMS & Sensors Industry Group at SEMICON China will highlight areas of opportunity for products “on the cusp” of commercialization and provide useful, original and compelling content to the audience. The conference will also address the convergence of MEMS/sensors and semiconductors and will be of particular interest to all SEMICON China attendees.
