If you think my 40 years of semiconductor experience is impressive, Malcolm Penn has been at it for 55 years starting with the first commercial integrated circuit. Malcolm’s company Future Horizons has been providing legendary semiconductor industry forecasts since 1989. I have attended dozens of these both live and virtual events over the years and Malcolm has been featured on SemiWiki many times in our blogs and podcasts. His next industry update is on 9/10/2024, Tuesday of next week, at 3pm UK time which is 7am PT. It is definitely worth your time, a cup of tea is also a good idea, I will see you there.
I have been getting weird vibes from the ecosystem over the summer so it will be interesting to see what Malcolm has to say. I will provide my feedback on the Friday following the webinar so stay tuned.
Semiconductor Industry Update Webinar – Registration Now Open
Taken at face value, the headline annualized growth numbers look good, with Memory leading the charge and AI GPUs flying off the shelf but delving into the detail and a much bleaker picture emerges. Inventory levels remain stubbornly high, dampening unit demand, and the global economy is weak, neither of which bodes well for the industry moving forward. Now, more than ever, is the time for cool heads and sound reasoning.
• Is the 2024 growth momentum sustainable or a false dawn?
• When will IC unit growth return to the industry?
• Will China flood the chip market with non-leading-edge ICs?
• Is the current AI boom hype, hope or reality?
• What does the outlook for 2025 hold?
Find out the answer to these and other key questions at Future Horizons’ IFS2024 Autumn industry update outlook webinar, Tuesday 10 September, 2024, 3pm UK BST, registration now open.
