Where Your SEMI Membership Dues Go

SEMI members receive multiple member benefits and the support and guidance of SEMI global staff - all
focused on moving our industry forward and helping your company succeed. To address the increasingly
complex, capital intensive, and interdependent microelectronics supply chain, SEMI has also invested in
technology platforms (Smart Manufacturing, Advanced Packaging) and Strategic Association
Partnerships (FlexTech Alliance, MEMS & Sensors Industry Group).
Revenue collected by SEMI is used to fund operations, sustain and grow existing programs and services,
and maintain activities that are critical to members' growth and prosperity that don’t generate sufficient
revenue to sustain their continuity. The graphic below shows the four broad categories of programs and
activities that rely on membership dues.
Thank you for your continued support of our association: we continue to take seriously our role as steward
of your financial contribution through membership.
