To realize a super smart society where people can live comfortably and vibrantly through the power of ICT, it is essential to engage in “monozukuri” – the creation of products – that connects cutting-edge technologies such as AI to everyday convenience.
In recent years, AI has become an increasingly familiar part of our daily lives through services like cloud computing and smartphones. Semiconductor technology — whose importance is once again being recognized globally — continues to serve as a core foundation of modern society, with further advancements in the field eagerly anticipated.

This time, we are holding a forum titled “Envisioning Semiconductor Technologies Toward Super Smart Society”. This forum will present insights into the realization of a super smart society from two perspectives: the social needs and future trends of semiconductors, and the technological seeds and industry developments that support them. In addition, we will bring together insights from industry, academia, and government to explore forward-looking challenges and the potential for creating new industries, envisioning the society of the future from a global perspective.
