SEMICON Europa 2025 to Highlight Innovations in Advanced Packaging, Fab Management, and MEMS and Imaging Sensors
October 6, 2025 | SEMIEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Semiconductor industry experts will convene at SEMICON Europa 2025, November 18-21 at Messe München in Munich, to explore the latest trends and innovations in advanced packaging and fab management. The Advanced Packaging Conference (APC), Fab Management Forum (FMF) and MEMS and Imaging Sensors Summit (MEMS) at SEMICON Europa will each focus on driving sustainable solutions to meet the evolving demands of the semiconductor market. Co-located with productronica, SEMICON Europa is the region’s premier event connecting the entire electronics design and manufacturing supply chain. Registration is open for APC, FMF, and MEMS.
“Global collaboration is of strategic importance to advancing Europe’s economic resilience and competitiveness,” said Laith Altimime, President of SEMI Europe. “The Advanced Packaging Conference, Fab Management Forum, and MEMS and Imaging Sensors Summit provide critical platforms for bringing together industry experts, innovators, and decision makers to ensure continued and sustainable growth throughout the European microelectronics supply chain.”
“We are entering a pivotal era where AI demands a radical rethinking of hardware innovation. At imec, we believe Europe’s strength lies in its ability to align research, industry, and policy around shared semiconductor roadmaps,” said Luc Van den hove, President and CEO of imec. “Our collaborative efforts, such as the NanoIC pilot line and our joint high NA EUV lithography research lab, demonstrate how collaboration can accelerate technology innovation to advance the development and adoption of next-generation technologies that impact industries on a broader scale. SEMICON Europa offers a unique opportunity to spotlight how collaborative innovation is shaping Europe’s semiconductor future—strengthening our competitiveness and reinforcing leadership across the entire value chain.”

Interposers, Substrates, and Advanced Manufacturing
10/13/2025 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007I attend a lot of industry trade shows and conferences. Lately, during conversations with technologists, I’ve noticed that there is some confusion about what exactly constitutes an interposer. One question I hear every so often is, “Are all interposers substrates?” The short answer to that question is no. But some interposers are, in fact, full substrates.
