The technical program covers semiconductor and electronic-device technology, design, manufacturing, physics, and modeling, including CMOS transistor technology, advanced memory, displays, sensors, MEMS, quantum and nanoscale devices, optoelectronics, power and energy-harvesting devices, and emerging material systems. Featured technical themes include AI-driven semiconductor scaling and system integration; memory technologies and system co-optimization; IDM manufacturing trends; chiplets, heterogeneous integration, and 3D stacking; AI and machine learning in physics-based semiconductor modeling; advanced-packaging reliability; cryogenic electronics for quantum computing; and optical devices for co-packaged optics and optical I/O. Short-course subjects include AI-era logic scaling, atomic-layer processing, HBM, NAND, spintronics, and memory-centric computing.

The conference theme is “Beyond the $1T Milestone: Building the Next Chapter of Semiconductor Growth.” Topics include semiconductor demand, AI, memory, advanced packaging, quantum technologies, manufacturing capacity, supply chain resilience, and ecosystem partnerships. Program sessions address macroeconomic outlook and geopolitics; memory and AI semiconductor demand; non-AI semiconductor, equipment, and materials forecasts; advanced packaging; quantum computing; robotics; co-packaged optics; and inference AI. Further sessions examine global fab capacity, whether semiconductor capacity can keep pace with demand, and what it will take to sustain the next era of growth.
