Meet us at SEMICON Korea

The exhibition will showcase the latest semiconductor materials, equipment, and related technologies. With special features including Semiconductor Technology Symposium, Market Trend Forum and Supplier Search Program. This will be a real and strategic opportunity to examine the present and future of the global semiconductor industry.

Get in touch with Marielle Lagers and Jay Seo to set up a meeting to discuss key insights, the latest trends and best practices in the semiconductor industry in the Netherlands.

A global semicon ecosystem in the Netherlands

As the inventors of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, the Dutch have long been world leaders in semiconductor technology. The country is also an enabler of Moore’s law with a leading lithography industry that has been pushing the boundaries of this technology. In addition, the Netherlands has a long history in semiconductor manufacturing resulting into a diverse semiconductor ecosystem, home to many semiconductor companies active in every part of the value chain.

Dutch universities, knowledge institutes and companies are leaders in the field of innovation serving as a magnet for global business investments, groundbreaking research and talent. International companies like Gallium Semiconductor, Odyssey Technical Solutions and Mini-Circuits have already found a place to accelerate their business in the Dutch high-tech ecosystem.

A countrywide commitment

The National Agenda High Tech Systems and Materials is supported by:

• 15+ Universities and Research and Technology Organizations, including TNO and Holst Centre
• 100+ Companies, including ASML, NXP, BESI
• 800 million public private partnerships annually for R&D&I
• 2,5% R&D of National GDP
