In the changing global semiconductor manufacturing industry environment, 'SEMICON Korea 2024' will present industry trends and provide new business opportunities, and technological innovations that transcend the boundaries and areas of the semiconductor manufacturing process will unfold.


'SEMICON Korea 2024' will be held at COEX in Seoul for three days from January 31 to February 2, 2024.

SEMICON Korea 2024, where global small, medium, and large companies beyond the Korean ecosystem gather in one place, will feature approximately 500 companies and showcase semiconductor manufacturing technologies and services that will open a new future through 2,100 booths.

SEMICON Korea 2024, which will be held under the theme of 'Innovation Beyond Boundaries', will serve as a business platform that supports technological innovation and the establishment of new partnerships in response to the situation in which the semiconductor industry is being reconstructed through continuous technological collaboration and innovation that goes beyond existing boundaries from chip design to manufacturing processes and supply chains due to the rapid development of AI technology.

About 30 conferences will be held during SEMICON Korea 2024.

The conference, which will feature approximately 200 semiconductor experts as speakers, will feature speakers from SK Hynix, Merck, and Eliy.It opens with keynote speeches by leaders in cutting-edge industries such as an).

In addition to the 'STS (SEMI Technology Symposium),' which divides the semiconductor manufacturing process into six categories and discusses advanced semiconductor manufacturing technology, the MI Forum, Test Forum, Smart Manufacturing Forum, and SiC Power Semiconductor Summit will also be held.

In addition, as decarbonization is a key issue for the semiconductor industry, a 'Sustainability Forum' will be held where industry trends and best practices related to net zero can be discussed. The 'SiC Power Semiconductor Summit', held for the first time this year, will present presentations that will allow the understanding of technology and market trends in the power semiconductor field as the importance of low power increases along with the development of advanced applications.

SEMICON Korea 2024 has strengthened its business areas compared to the previous year.

The 'Semiconductor Investment Briefing Session', where investment organizations from each country participate to introduce regional semiconductor support policies and hold briefing sessions to attract investment, will be expanded by more than double the previous size.

The 'US Semiconductor Investment Briefing' will provide a detailed explanation of the US Chip Act and will be attended by four US states (New York, Arizona, Indiana, and Texas) to provide guidance on each state's semiconductor support policies.

The 'European Semiconductor Investment Briefing', in which seven countries including the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, Sweden, the UK, and France are participating, will present the EU's Chip Act and investment strategies for fostering the semiconductor industry.

In addition, the 'Southeast Asia Semiconductor Investment Briefing' will be held in Southeast Asia, an emerging region in the semiconductor manufacturing industry, with participation from Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam.

The 'Startup Summit', a program that provides business matching opportunities between startups and venture capital firms so that global venture capital firms can discover and foster promising Korean semiconductor companies, is being held for the first time.

This program will involve Samsung Venture Investment, Applied Ventures, SK Hynix, LG Technology Ventures, M Ventures, UDC Ventures, and TEL Venture Capital, who will select semiconductor companies that dream of becoming the next unicorn company and provide investment opportunities.

The 'Purchase Consultation Meeting', a representative business matching program of Semicon Korea, is a domestic semiconductor To support overseas expansion of small and medium-sized enterprises, we have arranged approximately 100 business meetings with Micron, Infineon, and Kioxia.

'Meet The Expert!', a program designed to address the talent shortage facing the semiconductor industry, will also be held.

This program provides career development mentoring presentations by current engineers from semiconductor companies for science and engineering college students who wish to pursue a career in the semiconductor industry.

In addition, the 'Women-in-Technology' program will be launched to support strengthening competitiveness by promoting corporate diversity.

Female leaders from cutting-edge companies will present career development advice for female engineers and ways to increase diversity in the workplace.

Registration for SEMICON Korea 2024 will be held from December 4 to January 24 next year. During this period, you can register for the exhibition and keynote speech for free, and the conference can be registered at an early bird price.
