VAiFF presents “FEDERICO FAGGIN – THE MAN WHO SAW THE FUTURE” a submission in our Documentary category. Federico Faggin is one of the greatest minds of our time. Bill Gates once said, “If Faggin didn’t exist, Silicon Valley would just be a valley.” And it’s no exaggeration—Faggin invented the microchip, the touchscreen, and the touchpad, forever transforming the way we interact with technology. He founded several successful companies, yet he remains largely unknown to the general public. Voting window opens August 5th, 2025 – August 26th, 2025 (11:59 p.m. EST) only on vaiff.com
