Global Semiconductor and Electronics Forum (GSEF) brings together the end to end value chain in semiconductors, electronics and design supply chain. As one of the industry’s most important gatherings, the Forum explores current and future trends and finds solutions to business-hindering challenges.
GSEF Virtual Series 2021 will present the new format and highly focused online events on the most important industry issues. This will include virtual conferences, webinars and online polling throughout the year in order to engage with the market and explore how technology is transforming sectors across the electronics supply chain.
This platform will give you access to all potential clients to meet and discuss future business opportunities. In each edition, senior executives and top experts in Semiconductor, Automotive, 5G, Industry 4.0, AI, IoT, Cyber Security and Consumer Electronics markets will shed light on the most pressing topics and discuss the latest industry trends.
GSEF Virtual Series 2021 are composed of:
• Online Poll: A specially commissioned survey on enterprise of the future
• Semiconductor Innovation: More than Moore and moving to the edge – 17 June 2021
A focused half-day conference on the latest semiconductor innovations including quantum technologies, MEMS and sensors and evolving market demands

For our delegates and supplier partners:
Recent world developments have put a spotlight on the role smart connected devices will play in society and our everyday lives. As a result, developers seek to understand how devices’ abilities to sense, think, act and connect will help them anticipate and automate − to simplify life and remove barriers. In this talk we will share how these abilities are becoming a central feature across all connected devices and are driving convergence and commonality in approach.
