Lecturers:

Anurag Awasthi, Vice President IESA says, “Electronics is one of the most intensive global value chains in the world which is largely driven by the semiconductor industry nearly valued at $400 billion. The ESDM industry is growing at a fast pace due to strong policy support from the government and public and private stakeholders. The increasing demand for electronic products in India is further fuelling this growth. Through this national seminar, our aim is to bring thought leaders together to write the next chapter of the rise of India as a global ESDM leader through constructive dialogue around the needs of the industry, impending challenges and the solutions which can be implemented to chart a sustainable success path.”

The seminar will feature lectures from Key functionaries from the Government of Gujarat, EDA tool experts and semiconductor fab specialists. Further, the seminar will feature stalwarts from academia and the industry, experts from Gujrat State Electronics Mission. Moreover, it will have representatives from Dholera SIR, Semiconductor Laboratory (SCL), Mohali and policymakers.
