World Café: Making the Invisible Visible and Resilient

Designed to spark meaningful conversations across borders and sectors, this interactive session brings participants together around six key themes shaping the future of the semiconductor industry in the Northeast corridor.

Participants will rotate through two facilitated table discussions of 30 minutes each, exchanging ideas with peers from industry, government, research, and economic development. Each table is guided by the same three questions: what are the challenges, what are the solutions, and how can the NSMC help move things forward?
