Tracks: MEMS, MEMS & Sensors

The US and Silicon Valley are still the heart and soul of technology innovation and new start-up activity, yet the focus has shifted from semiconductors, processes and components over to analytics, apps, and cloud-based services. This session will introduce a new model for reviving hardware based startups for "More-than-Moore" technologies. By attending this session attendees will learn why hardware based startups are still vital to the growth of the Sensor industry, how SITRI is introducing a new model and framework for startup activity in the IoT and Wearable spaces, and examples of how new companies have been able to get started even when core semiconductor R&D is still needed.
