Environmental Sustainability - Introductory Panel

Sustainability is an industry priority. However, with the incorporation of sophisticated new semiconductor technology such as Gate-All-Around (GAA) transistors, the industry’s water, energy, chemical and gas footprint is set to increase rapidly. This panel will bring in multiple thought-leaders from across the industry to explain what is driving the sustainability effort and where the key capability gaps lie.  

This panel will answer three key questions: 

  1. How will GAA and other semiconductor developments affect those working in the sustainability field? 
  2. Where are facilities focusing their efforts in offsetting their footprints?
  3. How do facilities manage trade-offs and difficult decisions relating to sustainability?
