Kevin Engel, Corporate VP, FlipChip/Wafer Services BU at Amkor will be presenting “From Global to Local: The Journey to Supply Chain Localization”

Presentation Abstract

The past decade has presented the semiconductor industry with significant challenges. The global supply chain has been significantly impacted over the years by events outside of industry control. Natural events such as tsunamis, winter storms, seismic activity and more recently a global pandemic, have shut down material, talent and product flow. Geopolitical conflicts add an additional challenge to international shipments. All electronic companies have experienced differing levels of impact from these challenges. Industry leaders and governments are no longer willing to risk revenues and security on single-thread supply chains. End customers are pushing to strengthen and diversify the supply chain to build in an additional layer of resilience. This presentation will discuss an outsourcing assembly and test (OSAT) company’s view on the current localization trends in the United States and Europe.
