Ian, Participating in the '1st Semiconductor-AI Eco Fab Research Conference'

Ian Co., Ltd. (CEO Seungho Lee), a company specializing in industrial digital twin solutions, announced on the 17th that it participated in the '1st Semiconductor-AI Eco Fab Research Conference' held at Myongji University's Yongin Campus on the 3rd and introduced digital twin-based smart factory technology and sustainable semiconductor infrastructure operation strategies.

This research meeting was hosted by Myongji University’s Semiconductor Infrastructure Environment Center and is part of an industry-academia-research cooperation platform that connects the government’s semiconductor industry support policy with on-site technical capabilities. In particular, the discussion included cases of application of semiconductor, AI, and environmental convergence technologies and directions for cooperation in relation to the establishment of data centers and the promotion of RE100 industrial complexes.

RE100 is a global campaign to procure 100% of the electricity used by companies from renewable energy, and the government is currently promoting the creation of a RE100 national industrial complex and the enactment of related special laws to achieve this goal.

At the event, Ian shared a smart factory implementation case that covers the entire process of semiconductor manufacturing (FAB) design, construction, operation, maintenance, and management centered on the company's digital twin solution, 'DTDesigner'. 'DTDesigner' is a platform that supports real-time collaboration and workflow simplification through 3D model conversion and BIM file optimization, and is creating technological synergy linked to the core tasks of the Myongji University Center, such as building an AI-based data analysis and prediction system for the semiconductor manufacturing process and operating carbon-neutral facilities. The solution is being applied not only to high-tech industries but also to high value-added industries such as construction, defense, and nuclear power.

On this day, about 30 companies including Ian attended the research meeting and discussed technological cooperation on topics such as RE100 linkage strategies, AI-based power and environmental infrastructure operation, and water treatment and energy advancement plans.

An Ian official said, “This research meeting was meaningful at a critical time when the semiconductor industry must simultaneously realize power efficiency and economic feasibility beyond the use of AI,” and added, “We will continue to contribute to creating a sustainable semiconductor ecosystem through digital twins and AI-based environment and energy solutions.”
