TNO Semicon Event 2026

15 April 2026, 09:00 - 16:30

On 15 April 2026, TNO is organizing the TNO Semicon Event 2026. In 2026, the semiconductor industry faces increasingly significant challenges. The demand for computing power is increasing at an unprecedented rate, fueled by AI applications, edge computing, and the search for sustainable materials and processes. At the same time, geopolitical tensions, raw material scarcity, and the drive for energy efficiency are prompting the sector to actively collaborate, often with new international partners. Realizing the next generation of chip technology requires strong ties between countries, research institutions, and companies. In this rapidly changing landscape, TNO invites you to participate in the Semicon event with the theme 'Building Bridges to Reach Moore'.
