Industry Strategy Symposium Europe (ISS Europe), organized by SEMI, is one of the most important events on the global semiconductor calendar. It is a high-level strategic forum where industry leaders, policymakers, scientists, and experts address geopolitical challenges, the future of global supply chains, and the development of a competitive and resilient European microelectronics ecosystem.
Why Pomerania Stands Out on the Global Semiconductor Map
Hosting consecutive editions of ISS Europe in Sopot highlights Pomerania’s growing recognition as Poland’s leading semiconductor investment region. Through coordinated efforts between regional authorities, universities, and private investors, the region is building a long-term ecosystem based on talent, industry–academia collaboration, and strategic infrastructure.
Pomerania covers the full semiconductor value chain — from R&D and chip design centers operated by global players such as SK hynix, Intel, and Openchip, to innovative startups and advanced electronics manufacturing. The region’s increasing energy security, supported by offshore wind, photovoltaics, and Poland’s first nuclear power plant under development, further strengthens its position as a sustainable investment hub.
ISS Europe 2026: Shaping Europe’s Semiconductor Future Amid Geopolitical Shifts
ISS Europe 2026 will take place in Sopot from March 11–13 under the theme “Navigating Geopolitics: Shaping Europe’s Future.” The symposium will focus on strengthening supply chain resilience, enhancing competitiveness, advancing strategic R&D, and fostering innovation across Europe’s semiconductor ecosystem. The program will include executive sessions, expert discussions, and high-level networking opportunities designed to support collaboration and long-term investment.
