Over 1,000 experts from Google DeepMind, Stanford, Intel, TSMC, and Samsung will meet in Hanoi, Vietnam, March 12-14, for the world premiere of SemiKong and discussions on AI's role in transforming the $500B semiconductor industry.
The Industrial AI Federation, Aitomatic, and the National Innovation Center of Vietnam announced the AI-Semiconductor Conference (AISC) 2025. The conference will bring together over 1,000 global industry leaders from Google DeepMind, Stanford, Intel, TSMC, and Samsung to explore AI technologies transforming the $500B semiconductor and chip design industry. Taking place March 12-14, 2025, AISC will feature the world premiere of SemiKong, the breakthrough semiconductor foundation model that has demonstrated significant yield improvements in advanced chip manufacturing.
Following the success of the International Industrial-AI Conference (IIAC) at Stanford, AISC 2025 features an unprecedented assembly of global technology pioneers:
- Eric Schmidt, former CEO of Google, discussing strategic economic development in the age of AI, exploring opportunities and considerations for global technological advancement
- Christopher Nguyen, pioneer in Domain-Expert AI Agents (DXAs) and global leader in industrial AI, presenting transformative applications in semiconductor manufacturing
- Quoc Le of Google DeepMind, presenting advances at the forefront of AI in Planning and Reasoning autonomy
- Azalia Mirhoseini of Stanford, sharing breakthroughs in end-to-end AI-driven chip design from idea to manufacturing
- Richard Socher of YOU.COM, exploring fundamental advances in AI for Science
- VP Bank, one of Vietnam's top-three innovative banks, showcasing strategic application of AI across banking operations and customer services
- Michael Kokalari of Stanford, presenting insights into Southeast Asia's economic outlook for the next decade
- Industry leaders from Intel, IBM Research, and Honeywell, discussing practical implementations of AI in manufacturing
"AISC 2025 marks a pivotal moment in the evolution of AI and semiconductor technologies," said Dr. Christopher Nguyen, General Co-Chair of AISC. "We're bringing together the world's foremost innovators to showcase real breakthroughs at the intersection of AI and semiconductors."
A major highlight will be the world premiere of SemiKong, developed through collaboration between Aitomatic, Tokyo Electron, and FPT Software. This foundation model represents a significant leap forward in semiconductor manufacturing and design, with early deployments demonstrating unprecedented yield improvements.
The conference features specialized tracks:
- AI for Semiconductor Manufacturing, featuring the industry-defining SemiKong foundation model
- End-to-End AI-Driven Chip Design and Manufacturing
- Domain-Expert AI Agents (DXAs) and Industrial Applications
- Technical Deep Dives and Policy Strategy
Strategic partnerships with IBM, Meta, VP Bank, Panasonic, Fulbright University Vietnam, and Marvell enable unique technology demonstrations. A special reception will mark Vietnamese technology companies and research institutions joining the AI Alliance (thealliance.ai), alongside existing members including IBM, Meta, Aitomatic, Intel, and AMD.
