As traditional semiconductor scaling reaches its limits, heterogeneous integration is becoming a key enabler for next-generation systems. In this context, advanced packaging, bonding, and assembly are no longer supporting processes, they are central drivers of system performance, yield, and time-to-market. This presentation provides practical insight into the real-world challenges of advanced packaging for heterogeneous integration and how they are being addressed today. It highlights critical topics such as high-accuracy die placement, sub-micron alignment, force-controlled bonding, and modular, reconfigurable process platforms. Attendees will gain a clearer understanding of where current approaches reach their limits, which solutions are proving effective in production environments, and how process flexibility can support evolving integration strategies. By attending this live session, participants will learn which technology choices make a measurable difference in practice, how to adapt processes to new heterogeneous integration concepts, and which factors are likely to shape future roadmaps. The presentation is designed to provide actionable insight and a strong basis for technical discussion with peers and experts.
