Delegate registration is now open for Microelectronics US 2026, taking place 22–23 April 2026 at the Palmer Events Center in Austin, Texas. This landmark event will convene the entire microelectronics ecosystem, spanning semiconductors, photonics, and embedded systems to drive collaboration across design, manufacturing, and innovation.
Building on the success of Microelectronics UK, the US edition will serve as a central meeting point for engineers, investors, and researchers shaping America’s semiconductor resurgence. The two-day event is set to attract over 5,000 attendees, 150+ exhibitors, and 130+ speakers across four dedicated content stages.

In alignment with the CHIPS and Science Act, Microelectronics US 2026 will bring together innovators, manufacturers, and policymakers to address key industry challenges, from supply chain resilience and advanced manufacturing to secure embedded systems and workforce development.
The national focus has shifted from exploring possibilities to executing at scale. This event is designed as a strategic marketplace to support this shift, connecting the people, ideas and partnerships needed to turn ambition into industrial capability.
Industry leadership driving national collaboration
To ensure the agenda reflects industry priorities, Microelectronics US has appointed an Advisory Board featuring leaders from Intel, AWS, Honeywell, Nokia, MBDA, Texas State University and CORNERSTONE. The group brings expertise across telecommunications, photonics, defence, cloud computing and industrial innovation.
Michael Adeniya, Group Event Director at IQPC Exhibitions, said, “We’re building Microelectronics US as a space where the people shaping America’s microelectronics future can connect, collaborate and make decisions that matter. The Advisory Board brings together deep cross-sector expertise – ensuring the event reflects the challenges, innovation and opportunities driving this critical industry.”
Robert Quinn, Founder of Quinn’s Media, reinforced the importance of in-person connection: “The semiconductor industry runs on relationships and trust. Events like Microelectronics US are invaluable because they bring together the people actually making decisions and solving problems on the ground.”
Why Austin, why now
With CHIPS Act investment accelerating, Austin’s Silicon Hills has become a key hub for chip design, manufacturing and applied research. Hosting Microelectronics US 2026 in Texas places the event at the heart of one of America’s fastest-growing semiconductor regions.
Delegates will have access to technical sessions, keynote talks, a Startup Launchpad, Skills Zone and networking receptions designed to turn discussion into collaboration.
All tickets are free, with Access All Areas, General Access and Student Pass options available.
