The world's leading memory chip-maker is hosting the three-day forum from Friday in Santa Clara, California, bringing together company executives and US-based engineers, researchers and graduate students to discuss the future of memory technology.
'It is time for us to strengthen our capabilities in computing system architecture as we expand our presence in the AI memory ecosystem,' the company said.

Other top chiefs, including Kim Joo-sun, the president in charge of AI infrastructure; Ahn Hyun, the chief development officer; and Chief Technology Officer Cha Seon-yong will also join the event to meet with invitees and lead discussions on memory innovation and future product roadmaps, the company said.
In a first for the forum, the chipmaker has set up a separate area to showcase its core technologies for AI data centers and on-device AI solutions, including high bandwidth memory, enterprise SSD and LPCAMM2 module, for the participants.
'We have been strengthening our technological competitive edge by recruiting excellent talent through the global forum,' said Shin Sang-kyu, head of Corporate Culture at SK hynix. 'We will continue our 'Renaissance journey' to secure talent to lead the AI era.'
The annual event has become a key part of the company's global talent strategy since its launch in 2012.
