Get ready, because the IMAPS International Symposium on Microelectronics is coming up quickly. As the event continues its very impressive run of 57 years, this year’s symposium will take place from September 30 – October 3 at the Encore Boston Harbor. With 15 3D InCites Community Members presenting and 20 exhibiting, we’re excited to be well-represented at yet another industry conference!
Not only will so many of our members be there, but 3D InCites will have a significant presence as well. This year, we’re partnering with IMAPS to host the first 3D InCites Community Career Fair at the event on Tuesday, October 1 from 4-6 p.m.
The goal is to match jobseekers in the microelectronics industry and advanced packaging space with our leading-edge member companies in a casual, networking setting. Hiring Managers, if you have open positions that you’d like to fill, please reach out to Brian Schieman at bschieman@imaps.org for more information on how to secure your table.
Francoise will also be on-site podcasting! Members – be sure to secure your spot – as there are only 10 slots available. In the meantime, check out our list of member events and booth numbers to help plan your IMAPS schedule.
