This episode was recorded live at SEMICON Europa in Munich. This year's theme of this year’s conference is "Innovation and Collaboration: Powering Sustainable Exponential Growth". In other words, how the semiconductor industry can work together to sustainably reach the trillion dollar goal by 2030 without compromising its Net Zero goals. It's going to be tricky, for sure.

Frederic Godemel of Schneider Electric talks about what he calls the “energy trilemma” that is causing the energy supply challenges. These are security, affordability, and the impact on the planet. He explains how electricity generated from renewable sources will help address these issues and implores the industry to focus on growing responsibly so it can meet its goals. 

The conversation continues with Comet CEO, Stephan Haferl, who discusses the importance of developing power-efficient semiconductors. He talks about the power advantages of 3D stacking and heterogeneous integration and explains how 3D X-ray technologies helps bring these technologies to market. 

 Lastly, you’ll hear from Bart Placklé of imec, who talked about next generation vehicle architectures enabled by sensing and chiplets. You’ll learn what’s driving the need for chiplets in today’s software-defined vehicles, and how chiplet architectures can take us to the next level of autonomous vehicles.
