SSIA Launched The 1st Semiconductor Women’s Forum

On 11 March 2021 - The Inaugural Semiconductor Women's Forum in Singapore was launched at Conrad Centennial Singapore in a hybrid format. Organised by the Singapore Semiconductor Industry Association (SSIA) and supported by e2i, Workforce Singapore and Global Semiconductor Alliance, the event aimed to attract more female talents to join the semiconductor sector, and inspire the current female workforce to stay and thrive in the industry. The event attracted over 700 participants (both on-site and online) from more than 100 corporates and organisations worldwide. Ms Sun Xueling, Minister of State for Education and Social and Family Development, attended the event as the Guest of Honour.

The semiconductor industry in Singapore remains a male-dominant industry even though female leadership contributes tremendously in corporate sectors worldwide, as recognised by global studies. A survey 'GSA: Women in the Semiconductor Industry' conducted by GSA and Accenture in 2019 and 2020 showed a significant under-representation of females with the highest in leadership and technical roles in the industry.
The recent growth and consequent shortages in semiconductors have highlighted how critical the semiconductor industry is in providing the building blocks of the products and services that impact the way we live, how we work, and the way we enjoy our leisure.

Diversity is key to address these urgent needs in a responsible manner. The industry strongly needs more talents to deliver the vibrancy, agility and sustainability necessary for success in this field during the pandemic. The significant investments in building a more flexible and empathetic workplace will greatly help retain and attract employees, and nurture a culture in which women have equal opportunity to achieve their potential in a meaningful career, Semicon Industries have increased their efforts in creating diversified and inclusive working environments.

In the coming months, SSIA will roll out more events and activities to create a vibrant environment for its workforce. Even under the difficult time of COVID-19 pandemic, Singapore overall support by lady workers talent development initiatives for the electronics and semiconductor industry, which also increase the demand of packaging materials like, dicing tapes, T&R like WLCSP carrier tape, of which Nexteck Singapore Pte Ltd is the key supplier for semiconductor packaging materials in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia and the Philippines.
