The global chips shortage and massive supply chain delays have emphasised the importance of the semiconductor industry in Europe. To mark the entry into force of the European Chips Act, the launch event of the Chips Joint Undertaking will bring together leaders in the electronic components and systems sector.
Among the participants will be Commissioner Breton, members of the European Parliament, CEOs, CTOs, SMEs, RTOs, and high-level public authority figures who will deliver crucial political and industrial messages regarding the Chips Act and Chips JU's ambitions.
The event will provide an opportunity to get insights into the European strategy for strengthening Europe’s semiconductor ecosystem and gain a comprehensive understanding of the Chips JU’s mission and programme.
More information on the event, the agenda and the possibility to register can be found on the event website.

The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
