Every year, we do an online conference VSDOpen2019, which is dedicated to people who love open-ness, that’s where, VSD and Dan truly complement each other. We are glad to have Dan as VSDOpen
Keynote Speaker and he would share all his expert knowledge on history and future of semi-conductors.
There has been an acute interest about how the semiconductor industry looked, like, about 40 years back. Remember, 1980-1990 regime when Japanese stood to be the world leaders in semiconductor manufacturing. 1k and 16k DRAM’s are where Japanese firms had heavily invested, and there was an era (around 1990) where 6 Japanese firms out of top 10
accounted for 38% of semi-conductor market
By 2014-15, was the era, when top industries focused on other segments like micro-processors, mobile semiconductors and became market leaders. Intel, Samsung, Qualcomm were among the top one’s
Does that story sound interesting? If yes, that’s precisely will be the focus of Dan’s Keynote and he is going to bring out some more interesting history and future of semi-conductors. To make it effective, we need your help.
We are doing this “Keynote” session as special QnA, where Dan will answer all your queries, which you come up with using below google form. We will be selecting top 10 questions, so please be as specific as you can, while asking your query and we will make sure, your query gets answered
