2024 CMC Conference
2024 Critical Materials Council (CMC) Conference
“Making Moore and More with Less –
The Future of Semiconductor Materials”
Presented by TECHCET
Keynote: Pavel Freundlich, Ph.D., CTO & VP, Power Solutions Group at onsemi
Crowne Plaza Resort, Chandler, AZ
April 10-11, 2024
(with Welcome Reception the evening of April 9)
The Critical Materials Council (CMC) Conference brought to you by TECHCET is a 2-day event providing actionable information on materials and supply-chains for current and future semiconductor manufacturing. Unlike other conferences, the CMC Conference provides practical information addressing “How-to” not just “What.” Solutions to process challenges and materials-related issues are a key focus for the CMC conference presenters. Equally important focal points include business and supply-chain trends and materials needed for emerging technologies.
Featuring 5 Impactful Sessions:
1. Global Issues & Trends Impacting Materials
2. Heterogenous Integration& Advanced Packaging Materials
3. Immediate Challenges of Materials and Manufacturing
4. Challenges of Equipment & Consumable Component Materials
5. Emerging Materials in R&D and Pilot Fabrication
