  • ACTIVITY TWO: CURATED EVENTSThe GSA hosts curated events that span a broad array of semiconductor technologies and markets. In addition to hosting both regional and global events, the GSA offers events in a variety of formats. These formats include executive forums, technical workshops, and leadership networking events. The GSA events provide opportunities to share best practices and gain precious visibility into new opportunities. Most importantly, these events allow members to demonstrate thought leadership, engage in thought exchange with peers, and remain up to date on the industry. These events include: Global Leadership Summit (takes place every other year), an exclusive, invitation-only event that brings together 200+ industry executives from the leading semiconductor companies across the globe, primarily in the APAC region, for an afternoon of thought exchange and discussion; Memory + Conference (takes place every other year), an exclusive, invitation-only event that brings together 200+ industry executives from the leading semiconductor companies across the globe, primarily in the APAC region, for discussions revolving around advanced memory architectures and ecosystem applications; Taiwan CEO Roundtable (annual); European Executive Forum (annual), a GSA flagship executive event in Europe which, over two days, always attracts the very top global speakers and attendees: 275+ senior decision makers, the majority VP and C-level profiles. Over the past 20 years, it has become the reference executive event for the semiconductor industry in the EMEA region;Egypt Executive Event (takes place every other year), GSA hosted the inaugural Egypt Summit event during 2023, in collaboration with ITIDA and EiTESAL, which was established to strengthen and expand the semiconductor industry and its ecosystem in Egypt; US Executive Forum (Annual), an exclusive, invitation-only event with unparalleled content that brings together 225+ chief executives from top-tier semiconductor companies across the globe for an afternoon of thought exchange and discussion; APAC Executive Forum (Annual, an annual event which consistently gathers leading executives throughout Asia and beyond to discuss the greatest areas of opportunity within the semiconductor industry and the obstacles that must be addressed to capitalize on them; Technology Symposium (Annual), gathers industry executives and experts to provide thought leadership on emerging technologies and market trends and highlighted collaboration and growth opportunities that impact the entire semiconductor value chain; and Annual Awards Dinner (Annual), the industry's premier event celebrating the achievements of semiconductor companies in several categories ranging from outstanding leadership to financial accomplishments as well as overall respect within the industry.

  • ACTIVITY THREE: WOMEN'S LEADERSHIPThe GSA Women's Leadership Initiative (WLI) seeks in increase the number of young STEM focused women to the semiconductor industry, to retain, develop and promote women already in the industry and to support female entrepreneurs. The GSA has created a separate website for this initiative www.designthesolution.org. Objective 1: Attract more young women to the industry. The GSA has severalprograms directed at students.1) University ProgramsThe GSA seeks to attract more women to the semiconductor industry and does this through creating university programs whereby it brings in its member companies and young women from the industry to demonstrate to the female students why this is such an exciting and vibrant industry and why women should join the industry. This is done both domestically and internationally.2) Internship & New Hire PortalThe GSA has developed a job and internship portal to connect current and aspiring semiconductor professionals to opportunities in the field.3) Industry BrandingThe GSA believes that part of the problem for young students to choose thesemiconductor industry is that it has become a "boring" industry, so the GSA puts a huge effort in rebranding the industry away from the deep tech details to tell students that they can design the solution to many of the world's most daunting challenges including climate change, endemic poverty, lack of healthcare, etc. The GSA has created www.designthesolution.org which includes many resources for students and women in the industry and includes the rebranding of the industry.4) Visibility CampaignThe GSA believes that by showing young women what other women haveaccomplished in the industry that this will help make this a more attractive industry. The GSA utilizes social media to provide visibility of women in our industry. This platform is very important and is widely praised.Objective 2: Retain, Develop and Promote Women. This objective is accomplished through the following:1) EventsThe GSA hosts a number of exciting in-person and virtual events throughout the year. The marquee event is Women in Semiconductor Hardware (WISH). This annual conference offers a mix of inspirational and technical topics for attendees to explore, and it is free for students. WISH brings together industry luminaries, technology leaders, entrepreneurs, and university students in STEM to recognize and demonstrate women's technical prowess in the semiconductor ecosystem and celebrate their contributions to the industry.2) Visibility PlatformVisibility Campaign - The GSA regularly showcases inspirational women in thesemiconductor industry on Its Instagram, LinkedIn, and Facebook accounts.3) Presentations/MarketingThe GSA's CEO is often asked to speak to women's groups including NVIDIA, Micron, Ansys and Analog Devices.4) ResourcesThe GSA produces other resources, including:a. WLI Women's Directory, a comprehensive database of women in thesemiconductor industry;b. Best Practices Playbook and its accompanying CEO Pledge, which serveas a guide for companies committed to uplifting industry women and closing the gender gap;c.
