About the session

What is the forecast for Europe's economic health as a region and as a market economy versus the rest of the world? What will the specific impacts to the semiconductor industry be and how will these impact the EU in particular? Which global economies are strong following the economic recession of 2009? Where is the consumer and enterprise buying power today? These are just a few of the topics that are discussed and analysed in this keynote address. It highlights the global macroeconomic trends affecting 2010 worldwide recovery. Finally, it identifies how semiconductor technology can play a larger role in overall macroeconomic growth and stability - from energy savings and harvesting, to green environmental technology, to enabling "smart" medical and automotive applications and beyond. This presentation draws a picture of what is required to reach economic stability and how the semiconductor industry can help achieve this.
