The SEMI group’s annual European Industry Strategy Symposium
(ISS) is almost upon us and this time the industry is leaving the
mainland to meet in the wonderful city of Dublin. The

consolidate and emerging markets clamour for attention. The ISS
aims to gather the top minds for a critical view of the industry.
David Ridsdale provides an overview of what can be expected.
