Capturing Global Leadership in Next-Generation Glass Microelectronics Manufacturing

Capturing Global Leadership
in Next-Generation Glass-Based
Microelectronics

Wednesday, June 25 1-3pm EST

Glass-based solutions will power a new generation of microelectronics applications from AI and 6G communications to power electronics and beyond. New York State is primed to lead the nation in this semiconductor industry paradigm shift and become the global hub for glass-based value chains, powering economic impacts across its regional strategic industry clusters.

Join our webinar to learn about how New York State is the only place with the key building blocks and unique assets to achieve this vision, and how stakeholders can seize this first-mover opportunity.

Who should attend?

Companies in the microelectronics ecosystem including: supply chain companies, foundries, component suppliers, and device manufacturers.
Economic development organizations, and NYS state and local agencies.

What will you learn?

Why industry believes glass is poised to transform microelectronics packaging.
What economic impact establishing NYS as a glass packaging powerhouse would mean here and beyond.
What do companies already in the NYS glass-based microelectronics industry believe we need to do to achieve this vision.
How you can get involved to support our efforts.
