Powering the Next Generation of AIoT with Renesas and STMicroelectronics
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) are converging at the edge, where low-power, real-time intelligence is increasingly demanded for next-generation embedded systems. This presentation explores how two industry leaders, Renesas Electronics and STMicroelectronics (STM), are advancing the state of System-on-Chip (SoC) design to address these challenges. Renesas leverages its Dynamically Reconfigurable Processor for AI (DRP-AI) and heterogeneous SoC architectures to deliver ultra-efficient AI accelerators, enabling intelligent automation in robotics, vision systems, and industrial applications. STMicroelectronics complements this with its STM32N6 MCU family, embedding the Neural-ART NPU for breakthrough AI performance in consumer, industrial, and smart home devices. Together, these solutions highlight cutting-edge strategies for energy efficiency, integration of AI accelerators, real-time edge analytics, and secure connectivity, all core themes of the IEEE System-on-Chip Conference (SOCC). As a regional distributor of Renesas and STMicroelectronics, McKinsey Electronics plays a key role in making these cutting-edge technologies accessible to local industries, supporting partners and customers in adopting SoC-based AIoT solutions. Attendees will gain insights into the latest AI-powered SoC roadmaps, practical applications in IoT, and the technological directions shaping the next decade of embedded intelligence.

Intacture – The Natural Home of Data
Intacture is an innovative project that combines advanced technologies, environmental responsibility, and an inclusive approach toward the community. It represents a unique challenge for the public-private model, aiming to create a modern Data Center that is fully integrated into the territory, mindful of both the environment and people. What sets it apart is an Innovation Hub that brings together the entire Trentino research ecosystem, accelerating innovation and technological transfer. A modular and scalable EDGE infrastructure, designed to evolve over time, with the capacity to optimize data processing near its generation sources to reduce latency, energy consumption, and network congestion. Moreover, it will serve as a hub for research and development, fostering collaboration in key sectors such as artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, Artificial Intelligence and high-performance computing (HPC). Built inside mining tunnels where 90 million cubic meters of rock (80% of the infrastructure is underground) shield it from seismic, hydrogeological, and electromagnetic risks, ensuring an exceptionally safe and stable environment. The Data Center will operate with 100% renewable energy and achieve a Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) below 1.25, significantly lower than the European average of 1.6.
