A 2.5-day event devoted to the fast-moving world of electronics, specialty gases and technologies in Europe.

Semiconductor demand has never been higher globally. This is the digital age, an era where chips are the new oil.

It’s also an era of terse geopolitics, protectionism and an underlying twin transition where data and digitisation meet decarbonisation and sustainability.

As economies pivot and position for growth, many question whether these twin tracks compete or complement each other. Either way, the semiconductor and the technologies it feeds is at the heart of both.

By extension, our ambitions and imperatives in semiconductor technologies cannot be unlocked without specialty gases and equipment. If chips are the new oil, then specialty gases are the gold. How we support and reinvest in this industry is paramount.

gasworld’s inaugural Specialty Gases Summit in 2024 highlighted the critical challenges and questions Europe’s semiconductor supply chain faces, not least:

• The role of reclamation & recycling in specialty gas supply
• The need for greater agility in specialty gas supply chains
• How can we best bring new molecules and mixtures to the semiconductor market?
• Could disruptive new technologies in semiconductor manufacture pose a threat to specialty gas usage and demand?
• How could carbon taxation impact the semiconductor sector?
• Amidst sanctions and sourcing challenges, what future for helium in Europe?
• How do we balance sustainability objectives with safety and supply chain security needs?

Chemistry – in every sense – and collaboration between sectors is key to unlocking future growth. How we advance the molecule, how we invest in supply chain capabilities, and how we deliver reshoring of those supply chains will be central to progress.

Join us for gasworld’s second European Specialty Gas Summit as we return to Utrecht, the Netherlands for a 2.5-day event dedicated to the rapidly evolving specialty gases sector.

Building on the success of last year’s event, this summit brings together industry leaders, analysts, and innovators to explore the essential role of specialty gases in driving progress across multiple industries in Europe.

As demand for high-purity gases continues to rise, ensuring a resilient and efficient supply chain is more crucial than ever.
