MILPITAS, Calif., June 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- SEMI, the industry association serving the global semiconductor and electronics design and manufacturing supply chain, today announced strategic partnerships for this year's SEMICON® West with Alliance Sponsors Arizona Commerce Authority (ACA), Greater Phoenix Economic Council (GPEC), and Visit Phoenix. These collaborations reflect a shared commitment to accelerating Arizona's semiconductor growth and ensuring a strong global industry presence when SEMICON West debuts in Phoenix, Arizona, this October 7-9 at the Phoenix Convention Center. Registration is open – early-bird rates end June 27.
"Bringing SEMICON West to Phoenix speaks to the prominence of Arizona in the global semiconductor landscape," said Joe Stockunas, president of SEMI Americas. "With strong support from the state and local governments and organizations like the ACA, GPEC, and Visit Phoenix, Arizona has successfully attracted such major industry players as Intel, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), Amkor, and more than 100 companies in the semiconductor ecosystem. As the industry continues on its path toward $1 trillion in global revenue, Arizona has solidified itself as a key state driving growth and innovation."
SEMICON West brings together global leaders from across the microelectronics industry to address critical industry priorities – from advanced manufacturing and supply chain resilience to sustainability and workforce development.
