With SEMICON Europa not too far behind us, the industry is already gearing up again for SEMICON Japan. Taking place from December 11-13, this year’s Japan event will feature interactive sessions that we haven’t seen before, including Yoichi Ochiai’s Passion Lab and SEMICON Stadium, where participants will get to engage with sports-themed robots. If any of you get the chance to play sports with a robot, let us know!

In addition, we have a handful of 3D InCites community members presenting at SEMICON Japan, and many more who are exhibiting. Francoise will not be attending, but she’s excited to keep up with the event on LinkedIn! 

If you’ll be heading to Japan within these next few weeks, be sure to check out some of our member sessions and events.
