Conflicts & Cooperation in the Semiconductor Industry

*Thursday, July 17, 2008* *PART TWO* *Daryl Hatano, Vice President of Public Policy, "Semiconductor Industry Association":http://www.sia-online.org/home.cfm* In the mid 1980s and early 1990s, the US and Japan semiconductor trade conflict was given the highest priority by both governments because semiconductors were considered “the rice of industry” and “the crude oil of the information age.” Daryl Hatano will discuss how the resolution of these conflicts involved unprecedented bilateral cooperation to introduce American semiconductors to the Japan market, and led to today’s cooperative activities on trade policy, technology roadmapping, intellectual property, and energy savings. *Daryl Hatano* joined the "Semiconductor Industry Association":http://www.sia-online.org/home.cfm in 1983, when the US-Japan semiconductor trade conflict was at its peak, and continues to manage the Association’s international trade, legislative and workforce strategy programs.
