The Report Card m arket study uses the “Delphi Method” which is based on the inputs of a limited number of highly experienced and acknowledged worldwide MEMS indu stry experts.\n\nThe 2021 Report Card overall grade was a C+ which decline d from the previous five years grade of B- and with virtually all of the 1 4 subjects receiving decreasing grades. The hundreds of verbatim responses received along with the letter grades emphatically showed the culprit of the grade decreases to be inextricably linked to the results of the effect s of Covid. This was especially true in the subject of “Established Infr astructure” where the grade decreased from B+ to B- and was primarily du e to supply chain disruptions. Recommendations of the study include action able strategies to mitigate and overcome the highly expected resulting neg ative effects to the MEMS commercialization process due to expected contin uance of Covid into 2022.\n\nSpeaker(s): Mr. Roger H.
