SEMICONNECT 2026
Mastering new materials to join the global value chain —
where do Vietnamese businesses start?
From packaging to wafer:
three material groups within Vietnam’s reach
SemiConnect 2026 focuses on new materials for semiconductors, in line with Vietnam’s national strategy. The opportunity is real if the country moves early on the materials wave — and local firms have a practical route in, beyond assembly and contract manufacturing.
Why attend SemiConnect 2026?
Three keynotes take on the hard question: which material groups Vietnamese firms can actually make, where to start, and what international strategy offers a usable lesson.
Three material groups within reach
The opening keynote runs from packaging to wafer to identify the three material groups Vietnamese firms can enter now, instead of surveying the whole chain.
A realistic entry point
Packaging and thermal materials carry the lowest technology barrier. Keynote 2 works through exactly that entry point for local manufacturers.
Lessons from abroad that fit
Not every model transfers. Keynote 3 reviews materials strategies run elsewhere and filters for what matches Vietnam’s conditions.
Aligned with national strategy
The program sits inside Vietnam’s national semiconductor strategy, co-organised with NIC, the National Innovation Center.
The northern ecosystem in one room
Meet the enterprises, institutes, associations and regulators of the northern industrial cluster in a single morning, at Vietnam’s largest convention center.
Beyond contract assembly
Leave with a concrete answer to the question every firm asks: what it takes to move past assembly and contract manufacturing.
Speaker Lineup
Leading executives, experts and policymakers in the semiconductor industry.
