Fragomen invites you to join us for our next Semiconductor Industry Group Webcast – Semiconductors in Europe: Futureproofing Your Talent Pipeline in an Era of Economic and Political Uncertainty – on Tuesday, 11 June.
Setting the scene for Europe, we will discuss the significance of talent pipelines and the current challenges for growth of the sector in our regions including the UK, Germany, Ireland and The Netherlands. As many of these current challenges revolve around workforce, we will touch on the role graduates and students play before diving in to the reactive government policies we are seeing in the respective countries. Given the importance of 2024 with key elections in many countries across the globe, we’ll explore why now is the time to engage in advocacy and the importance of making your voice heard from industry to policy makers and share the successes we’ve seen.
Speakers:
- Nima Sarvari, Partner, Fragomen, Germany
- Christine Sullivan, Partner, Fragomen, Netherlands
- Charlotte Wills, Partner, Fragomen, UK
- Deirdre Murray, Senior Manager, Ireland
- Nick Fleischer, Global Head of Recruiting, Infineon Technologies, Germany
