The European Union has officially launched the highly anticipated Chips JU pilot lines, a pivotal €3.7bn initiative aimed at strengthening Europe’s semiconductor innovation and production capabilities. This landmark effort, part of the broader Chips for Europe Initiative, is set to transform the region into a global leader in semiconductor research and manufacturing. 🔗 https://bit.ly/3Wrqa1T #ChipsForEurope

Semiconductor manufacturer GlobalFoundries Inc. will invest $575 million in a new facility at its Malta campus with the help of new federal and state funding. The company announced Friday it will create the New York Advanced Packaging and Photonics Center, a secure facility to package, test, and manufacture semiconductors to support defense applications, AI and high-performance computing, among other industries. The new center is expected to create 100 new jobs in Saratoga County over the next five years. The facility will offer advanced packaging, assembly, and testing, allowing the company to more easily transform chips into individual packages ready for end-product use. The center’s new production capabilities are intended to help onshore advanced packaging, which mostly takes place in Asia today.

2025 is off to a fantastic start for technology developers in the #semicondcutor industry. This week the Semiconductor Industry Association announced a new CHIPS for America R&D facility in Arizona, dedicated to furthering both semiconductor prototyping and advanced packaging. This facility will fuel collaborative research for maintaining U.S. leadership in semiconductors and is a great example of the type of investment that Atomera has been advocating for – improvements to America’s Lab to Fab infrastructure. It’s also encouraging to see Arizona’s prominence in semiconductor research and development continue to grow. Our work with Arizona State University has demonstrated how combining academic expertise and industry innovation solves complex challenges. I look forward to what this new facility will achieve under the NSTC and MAPMP’s guidance. Here’s the full announcement: https://bit.ly/3DJOy8a
