In 2026, the semiconductor industry faces mounting challenges. Demand for computing power is accelerating like never before, fueled by AI applications, edge computing, and the pursuit of sustainable materials and processes. At the same time, geopolitical tensions, resource scarcity, and the drive for energy efficiency are prompting the sector to actively engage in collaborations, often with new international partners.
Achieving the next generation of chip technology demands strong connections between countries, research institutes, and companies. In this rapidly evolving landscape, we invite you to join us at the TNO Semicon Event 2026: ‘Building Bridges to Reach Moore’.
More information on the programme will follow soon.
This full-day event kicks off with an inspiring morning session, featuring confirmed speakers Junichi Tanaka-san (Hitachi Hightech Company), Hamed Sadeghian (Nearfield Instruments), and Johan Feenstra (SMART Photonics). In the afternoon, we’ll explore critical future technologies together with leading TNO experts and innovative start-ups shaping the semiconductor ecosystem.
We look forward to welcoming you on Wednesday, 15 April 2026, at the High Tech Campus Conference Centre in Eindhoven!
