Sensors are at the core of many of our interactions with the world. They serve as the bridge between the physical and digital realms. From this perspective, there is a strong expectation that sensorization remains human-centric, enhancing our daily lives by contributing to a better lifestyle. Also, there is an increasing urgency to keep up with long-term plans regarding sustainability. The path for a net-zero transition is everyone's responsibility, and embedding sustainability practices in our sensor strategy is essential to our people, our business, and society at large. Our commitment to sustainability is reflected in the way our sensors deliver valuable data efficiently across various industries, including automotive, industrial sectors, infrastructure projects, and consumer electronics, ensuring that our technological footprint is both meaningful and environmentally conscious.

Biography
Simone Ferri is General Manager for STMicroelectronics MEMS sub-group since February 2016.Simone began his career in STMicroelectronics in 1999 as an R&D engineer, before moving on to digital designer for the Audio Division, leading into product management after 5 years.
