Welcome to another episode of IQT Explains! Today, we are joined by Dr. Yan Zheng, IQT’s Chief of Staff, and Michael Falcon, Investment Partner, to discuss the importance of microelectronics.
Microelectronics are crucial to modern technology, impacting devices we rely on every day — cell phones, computers, automotives, and medical systems. U.S. manufacturing has declined due to offshoring, but initiatives like the CHIPS Act aim to bring production back.
Today, we’ll discuss the importance of onshoring production as well as investing in emerging trends like advanced packaging (chiplets), photonics (light-based electronics), and using materials beyond silicon like gallium nitride and silicon carbide.
Join us for a conversation on how the U.S. can maintain leadership in this domain and why doing so is critical to preserving national security.
Key Topics
Supply Chain Complexity & Innovation
Future of Microelectronics Innovation
Microelectronics Significance
Challenges & Opportunities in Microelectronics
