The FLEX Technology Summit will be held on February 24-26, 2026, at the Wigwam Arizona Resort in Phoenix, Arizona, celebrating 25 years of innovation in flexible hybrid electronics (FHE), printed electronics, and advanced packaging. This year’s theme, “Edge of Reality: Augmenting Flexible Hybrid Electronics with AI, Digital Twins, and XR,” will focus on how emerging technologies are transforming FHE and related fields. Registration is open.
FLEX 2026 will feature keynotes, technical sessions, gap analyses, professional courses, industry tours, and a dynamic exhibit of solution providers showcasing the latest advancements in FHE, heterogeneous integration, MedTech, and more. Attendees will gain insights into cutting-edge equipment, processes, materials, and applications driving next-generation electronics. The event will also highlight innovations from public-private partnerships fostered by SEMI Technology Communities, FlexTech and Nano-Bio Materials Consortium (NMBC).
“For 25 years, FLEX has been integral in uniting the industry, academia, and government—pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in flexible hybrid electronics,” said Gity Samadi, Senior Director of R&D Programs at SEMI. “This milestone is not just a celebration of our progress, but a look into what’s next. At FLEX Technology Summit, we’ll reflect on the innovations that built the foundation to today's technologies and explore the breakthroughs that will revolutionize the next 25 years.”
