Abstract: With MEMS now seen as a critical enabling technology and is therefore projected to grow faster than the semiconductor industry in 2011, semiconductor players have increasingly entered into the MEMS field as a potential high-value/high-growth market opportunity. As a result, the MEMS supply chain is expanding rapidly. The programme for this session will feature various perspectives from players within this supply chain on the current state of affairs in the MEMS market; efforts by semiconductor companies to develop their MEMS capabilities, specifically in the medical market; IC design for MEMS and much more.
