The ECSA Student Forum hosted by TU Delft was all about shattering barriers and tackling challenges head-on!

Attendees got a glimpse into the future of the microelectronics sector and heard from innovative new projects and established industry leaders.

During the event, attendees also got to know the ECS-Academy, including the launch of our Student Ambassador program. This initiative is meant to both bring the Academy’s activities to the student community and to foster understanding and connection with students’ needs and expectations.
