This is the 5[SUP]th[/SUP] TSMC Open Innovation Platform Ecosystem Forum and it is not to be missed. Please note that the location has moved from the San Jose Convention Center to the Santa Clara Convention Center which is literally right across the street from the new Levi’s Stadium. If you haven’t been to the new stadium you really should take a tour and stop by the SF 49ers Museum. Public tours run between 10am and 6pm and yes they have WiFi.
The new location will increase attendance significantly this year (my opinion) so you had better register now because space is limited. In addition to networking with 1,000+ semiconductor professionals you will get to hear from TSMC’s executives on what is new and improved for the different processes and surrounding ecosystem: 28nm, 16nm, 10nm, and I would bet 7nm will also be mentioned if not formally announced.
You may also get to hear from one of TSMC’s leading customers. At the TSMC Technology Symposium last April the guest speaker was Avago CEO Hock Tan. Since then Hock has engineered the acquisition of Broadcom for $37B. Previously he acquired LSI Logic for $6.6B so I would definitely like to hear a semiconductor industry update from an executive of his caliber, absolutely.
The event starts at 9am on Thursday, September 17[SUP]th[/SUP]. After the ninety minute executive presentations there are 30 technical papers divided into three tracks for EDA, IP, and Services. The paper abstracts are now up on the OIP website. And of course there will be a vendor expo with 80 vendors bearing gifts and the latest news on design enablement. Rumor has it Solido Design will be giving away the elite SemiWiki.com stylus penlights so you may want to go there first.

The TSMC OIP Ecosystem Forum brings together TSMC’s design ecosystem companies and our customers to share real case solutions to today’s design challenges. Success stories that illustrate best practices in TSMC’s design ecosystem will highlight the event.
More than 90% of last year’s attendees said that “the forum helped them better understand TSMC’s Open Innovation Platform” and that “they found it effective to hear directly from TSMC OIP member companies.”
This year’s event will prove equally valuable as you hear directly from TSMC OIP companies about how to apply their technologies to address your design challenges!
This year, the forum is a day-long conference kicking-off withtrend-setting addresses and announcements from TSMC and premier IC design company executives.
The technical sessions are dedicated to 30 selected technical papers from TSMC’s EDA, IP, Design Center Alliance and Value Chain Aggregator member companies, and an Ecosystem Pavilion feature up to 80 member companies showcasing their products and services.
