Only one week left before the registration deadline! 【 Beyond the Silicon Shield: The Epic Journey of "A Chip Odyssey" 】 While the world focuses on Taiwan’s "Silicon Shield," we invite you to look behind the headlines at the human spirit that made it possible. On June 27, join us at the Irish College in Leuven for a special screening of "A Chip Odyssey." Discover how a generation of engineers in the 1970s dared to gamble on a vision that would eventually transform a small island into a global tech cornerstone. Beyond the screening, we are honored to host a high-level panel featuring Dr. Gilbert Declerck (Former CEO of imec) and distinguished scholars. Together, we will explore the geopolitics, innovation, and strategic resilience that continue to shape our world today. 【 晶片背後,是人的故事:造山者的世紀賭注 】 當全世界都在討論台灣的「矽盾」,我們想邀請你走進歷史的後台。 6月27日,讓我們在魯汶 Irish College 透過紀錄片《造山者 A Chip Odyssey》,看半世紀前的那群工程師,如何在強國利益與資源匱乏間,賭上信念,從零開始建造起守護島嶼的「護國神山」。 這不只是一場電影,更是一場關於未來與地緣政治的深刻對話。我們特別邀請了 imec 前 CEO Gilbert Declerck 與多位學者,與大家共同探討這場塑造了今日全球科技版圖的戰略傳奇。 📍 活動資訊 Event Info 📅 Date: Saturday, 27 June 2026 🕑 Time: 14:00 - 17:00 📍 Venue: Irish College, Leuven 🎟 Admission: Free (Registration Required).
