MICROELECTRONICS 2025: From Technology to Application

Conference

The Faculty of Electrical and Electronics Engineering at Kaunas University of Technology (KTU) invites you to the international conference “MICROELECTRONICS 2025: From Technology to Application”, which will take place on November 3–4 at the KTU Interdisciplinary Prototyping Laboratory Centre – M-Lab.

During the conference, researchers from KTU and IHP (Leibniz Institute for High Performance Microelectronics) will present the latest scientific research, open-source microelectronics design tools and technologies, and demonstrate their practical applications. On the second day of the conference, Finetech will showcase 2.0, 2.5, and 3D hybrid chip system technologies.

Participants who attend the conference will receive professional development certificates.
