Day 1 - May 20

On Tuesday morning, May 20, we kick off with an inspiring, opening keynote by Luc Van den hove, CEO of imec. He will explore the future of semiconductor innovation in the era of next-gen AI. Johny Srouji of Apple will offer a deep dive into cutting-edge AI-driven silicon innovations. With Scott DeBoer from Micron and Sassine Ghazi from Synopsys, we will further explore the various aspects of how chip technology will enable the next generation of AI. Next, be sure to join Ulrich Homann from Microsoft as he explores the future of AI-driven digital transformation and its impact on technology and business. Finally, do not miss the joint robotics demonstration by Melexis and imec.

Thematic demo tour

Which jobs will still exist in ten, twenty years? This question is quite difficult to answer nowadays. Two important technological domains – which are starting to overlap more and more every day – are partly responsible for this: AI and robotics. This tour shows some striking examples of how robots, supported by AI, could play a role in our lives. From assisting with heavy work, to teaching skills and even ... preparing your drink. Cheers!
