Next-Generation Semiconductor Packaging Industry Exhibition to Be Held in Suwon from August 27 to 29

Gyeonggi Province will host the "2025 Next-Generation Semiconductor Packaging Industry Exhibition (ASPS)" at the Suwon Convention Center from August 27 to 29, and is now recruiting visitors for the event.

Now in its third year, this exhibition is Korea's leading specialized event focused on the semiconductor back-end process (packaging and testing) sector.

More than 180 companies, including major domestic corporations such as Samsung Electronics and SK hynix, as well as global semiconductor giants like NVIDIA and ON Semiconductor, will participate to showcase advanced packaging and testing process equipment, materials, components, and technology solutions.

On the first day of the event, the "Semiconductor Packaging Trend Forum" will feature world-renowned scholars and global industry experts as speakers, including Professor Kim Jeongho of KAIST, Hanwha Semitek, Applied Materials, and TI Korea, who will introduce the latest semiconductor packaging technologies and industry trends.

In addition, a variety of programs will be offered, including: a purchasing and export consultation meeting between domestic small and medium-sized enterprises and overseas buyers; an advanced packaging pre-process research conference by the Korea Nanotechnology Research Institute; a convergence research forum by the Next-Generation Convergence Technology Institute; a materials, parts, and equipment technology convergence forum by the Korea Microelectronics Packaging Research Society; an advanced packaging technology seminar by the Korea Electronics Packaging Industry Association; a seminar on the Japanese semiconductor industry trends by the Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO); and a briefing session on Israeli companies and technology by the Embassy of Israel.

To address the demand for semiconductor talent, a job fair will also be held. On-site interviews and recruitment consultations will take place, along with various side events such as introductions to workforce development programs, personal color analysis, resume photo shoots, and career tarot consultations.

Notably, this year will also feature "ISES KOREA 2025" (the Global Semiconductor Executive Summit, August 27-28), attended by top executives from global semiconductor companies such as Samsung Electronics, SK hynix, NVIDIA, and ON Semiconductor. This concurrent event will provide semiconductor companies in the province with opportunities for direct interaction with global corporations and discussions on new technologies and the future direction of the advanced semiconductor industry.

Park Minkyeong, Director of the Semiconductor Industry Division of Gyeonggi Province, stated, "We expect this industry exhibition to expand business opportunities for companies and help the general public stay informed about industry trends and prepare for employment. Gyeonggi Province will strive to become a key hub for the future growth of the semiconductor industry, centered on the K-Semiconductor Belt, through this exhibition."

This industry exhibition is open to not only those working in the semiconductor sector but also to the general public and job seekers.

Meanwhile, last year's "2024 Next-Generation Semiconductor Packaging Industry Exhibition" featured 168 companies operating 328 booths and attracted a total of approximately 11,400 visitors.
