Preview of the MEMS Technology Showcase at MEMS Executive Congress US 2012
If I must tell the truth, the genesis of MEMS Technology Showcase began (as many great ideas do) at a bar over beers, the closing night of MEMS Executive Congress 2010. I was talking with Bryan Hoadley of Movea, who…
Preview of our fabulous keynotes at MEMS Executive Congress US 2012
by Karen Lightman, managing director, MEMS Industry Group Recently I was talking with a MIG member about what was unique about this year’s Congress. I actually surprised myself when I instantly blurted out, "the keynotes!" Normally, I would talk about…

By Karen Lightman, managing director, MEMS Industry Group I remember the first time we had a panel on consumer MEMS products at the MEMS Executive Congress. It was November 2006: Marlene Bourne was our moderator and our panelists were: Frank…
GlobalFoundries takes on Intel with 14nm finFET “eXtreme Mobility” process
A week after Intel were claiming that their 14nm process will be ready to go at the end of next year, GLOBALFOUNDRIES (GF) announced that they will have a 14nm finFET process for launch in 2014. Unfortunately they timed it…
MEMS in medical, quality-of-life panel at US MEMS Executive Congress US 2012
For those of you who have heard me talk about MEMS and medical/quality-of-life (QoL) applications — I don’t shy away from calling it “God’s work.” I still get misty-eyed when I think about my friend’s 10-year-old daughter, Anna, who has…
