The Countdown is on to SEMICON Taiwan…
Over 100,000 individuals are expected to attend
SEMICON Taiwan is one of the largest, and most influential events for the electronics manufacturing industry. Over 100,000 individuals are expected to attend from 1,200 leading semiconductor and technology companies, with some 4,100 booths expected to showcase global businesses.
Bottom line: it’s big. And we’ll be there.
We all know the situation
Our supply chains are as vital as they are fragile. If developing stronger ecosystems begins with building resilience, then building resilience begins here.
This September, we’ll be one of the 1,200-strong businesses walking through the doors of Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center for SEMICON Taiwan, one of the most anticipated events of its kind. And we can’t wait to introduce ourselves to the wider industry.
As a strategic partner of SEMI, we’re proudly exhibiting alongside the association to bring a new, bold way of collaborating across supply chains – dismantling the complex, restrictive systems limiting our potential.
“The electronics manufacturing industry is not immune to the issues impacting global trade such as supply chain volatility, geopolitical challenges, and talent and skills shortages. Together, these factors create a tough landscape for today’s manufacturers,” says Bettina Weiss, Chief of Staff & Corporate Strategy at SEMI.
“SEMI proudly brings the industry together to address pressing challenges, and develop solutions - a guiding principle which has never been more important with the uncertainty in today’s world. We are excited to showcase our Supply Chain Management initiative at the 30th edition of SEMICON Taiwan in Taipei and share some of the industry solutions our stakeholders have developed.”
2025 has been a banner year for global trade. Changes in leadership from 2024 have heavily influenced shifting policies, evolving regulations, increased tariffs, and continued disruptions across our supply chains. Dominating headlines, and how businesses operate.
“In many senses, the electronics manufacturing industry has felt the brunt of this,” says Talal Abu-Issa, Co-CEO and Co-Founder. “With geopolitical tensions rising, we’ve seen sentiments of a critical minerals ‘Cold War’ begin to take shape, and new regional alliances form as a result. New US tariff rates are expected to have seismic effects on manufacturers and suppliers, particularly given the proposed 100% tariffs on chips and semiconductors manufactured outside of the US.
“As an industry, we need to find ways to strengthen our operations – individually and collectively. And we need to do it now.”
This is where collaboration comes in.
By pooling and sharing our data and insights, we unlock a completely new view of our supply chains. One that’s more valuable, more expansive, and more connected than any single player can achieve alone. A no-brainer.
Think of it this way: combining our intelligence enables stronger demand forecasting, more thorough scenario planning and risk assessment, faster responses in the face of disruptions, access to a broader network, better prioritization… it’s not quite ad infinitum, but it might as well be.
With current supply trends and analytics, AI capabilities, and of course, shared data, we have the ability to cultivate more resilient systems, more valuable systems, more equitable systems.
So let’s start – this September. See you in Taiwan.
