Marie Semeria also participated on a panel on “How will the semiconductor industry change to enable 50 billion connected devices”.
Leti CEO, Marie Semeria, helped kick off IEDM 2016, one of the high-tech industry's most prestigious annual events, with an opening-day keynote on Symbiotic Low-Power, Smart and Secure Technologies in the Age of Hyperconnectivity. The keynote presented a comprehensive view of ubiquitous connectivity's vast potential to bring positive change for individuals, society, companies and governments. The institute also provided its vision: a world in which a human-centered research approach combined with symbiotic development strategies "along different technological axes will foster key innovations that address societal challenges with strong impact."

Marie Semeria also participated on a panel on “How will the semiconductor industry change to enable 50 billion connected devices”.
Leti presented 13 scientifc papers, including memory and CMOS paper.
The institute clarified for the first time the correlation between endurance, window margin and retention of resistive RAM (RRAM), a non-volatile random-access memory.
- Demonstrated that memristive devices are excellent candidates to emulate synaptic plasticity, the capability of synapses to enhance or diminish their connectivity between neurons, which is widely believed to be the cellular basis for learning and memory.
