Françoise von Trapp and  SEMI Europe's Laithe Altimime discuss the status of the European Chips Act, which aims to double Europe's market share in global manufacturing by 2030 and increase chip production by 20%. The discussion focuses on European industry growth and resilience, and the importance of collaboration. They also discuss  ISS Europe which takes place in Vienna, March 6-8, 2024, and how its content differs from SEMI ISS.  This year's theme will focus on the microelectronics supply chain, sustainability, and workforce development.  You'll learn about the importance of Europe's Chips Act in maintaining competitiveness and increasing strategic positioning in the global value chain. You'll also better understand the need for a more resilient supply chain, particularly in light of geopolitical events and the chip shortage. You'll learn,  in detail, about the workforce development challenges facing the entire semiconductor industry, and the approach the EU is taking to address them.
