SEMI, the industry association representing the global electronics manufacturing and design supply chain, announced that in the three months since imec, a worldwide leader in nanoelectronics research, joined SEMI as a strategic association partner under a memorandum of understanding (MOU) announced at the SEMI Industry Strategy Symposium (ISS) in January, two additional worldwide leaders in nanoelectronics research – CEA-Leti and Fraunhofer – agreed to join forces by signing similar agreements.
By partnering with imec and now CEA-Leti and Fraunhofer, SEMI brings global scale to three of the world’s top technology research and innovation centers to support development of new products and technologies by its more than 2,100 member companies.
Under the MOUs, SEMI will partner with imec, CEA-Leti and Fraunhofer to drive innovation and deepen industry alignment on technology roadmaps and international standards while adding technology depth to the more than five SEMI vertical application platforms, including Smart Transportation, Smart MedTech, Smart Manufacturing, Smart Data and IoT.
“SEMI is excited to welcome imec, CEA-Leti and Fraunhofer to our growing family of strategic association partners,” said Ajit Manocha, SEMI president and CEO.
