CES PODCAST

Imagine what future cities will look and feel like! Interconnected, more sustainable, more efficient, in short: much healthier cities to work, live and play in. With our materials-based solutions for semiconductors, we develop and advance the technologies for storing and processing the huge amounts of data needed for running a truly smart city. Are you curious what Las Vegas, Hong Kong or London will look like in the future?

Quantum computing is poised to disrupt traditional computing methods and bring the power to tackle large optimization problems. Together with our partner SeeQC, we are developing the first superconductive digital quantum computing platform that is designed to be commercially scalable and power problem-specific quantum computing applications. Learn how we are addressing existing challenges and contributing to the realization of a new computing paradigm.

We enable the technology that makes your displays crisp and bright and we are passionately developing the materials of the future display technologies – for both LC and OLED. Freeform displays, truly frameless TVs and other groundbreaking developments are waiting to make the world brighter, smarter and more colorful. Learn what your next display might look like!

The future of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is promising, yet very resource demanding. We are currently driving more efficient computing architectures based on a very proven role model: the human brain! Neuromorphic approaches promise a 100-fold to 10,000-fold improvement in efficiency, opening the door for embedded or edge AI. We’ve partnered up with MemryX, a US-based start-up that designs brain-inspired computer chips for AI applications. Experience how we are unlocking the potential for nature-based computing!
