(June 3, 2008) SAN JOSE, CA — When Advanced Packaging magazine covered MEPTEC’s first MEMS Symposium in 2003, MEMS was a technology with potential that needed to move from a technology-driven to a market-driven approach to succeed commercially. This year’s symposium on May 22, 2008 was subtitled “MEMS Market Evolution — From Technology Push to Market Pull,” suggesting that the potential has been realized. Sessions were focused on market segments (consumer, automotive and biomedicine) rather than technologies.
