Abstract

<DIV class=heading3> Strategic Direction and Leadership for Europe </DIV> The transformation of the European microelectronics is continuing at a rapid pace. Traditional European market leaders are modifying and re–inventing themselves to match global market changes while, at the same time, explosive growth has occurred in new and developing market segments. In this environment, a clear strategic direction is required both for individual companies operating in Europe as well as across Europe as a wholeâ€”if we are to take full advantage of the continuously changing and expanding microelectronics market. This must be accompanied by strong and decisive leadership, especially in the challenging macro–economic climate that we now live in. ISS 2009 creates a unique atmosphere in which senior industry executives with their peers can discuss critical issues, while being stimulated with a range of topical presentations. The presentations will mirror key issues facing the industry today in the areas of: <UL type=disc compact> <LI>Market forces and drivers for semiconductors and related technology <LI>The environment for industrial development in Europe <LI>Guest Speaker â€œRiding the whirlwindâ€ <LI>Executive Panel â€œStrategic direction and leadership for Europe`s semiconductor industry <LI>Manufacturing and Technology on and beyond Silicon <LI>Semiconductors Industry Forecast</LI></UL> <DIV class=heading3> ISS 2009 Speakers include:</DIV> <UL type=disc compact> <LI>Peter Bauer, CEO, Infineon Technologies <LI>Frank F.
