Digital, Industry & Space Semiconductors

The APECS Pilot Line Open Access Call opens on 1 April. It aims to provide access to advanced semiconductor technologies for businesses, research organisations, and universities. Participants can submit project ideas to utilise top-tier R&D infrastructure for testing and validating their innovations.

The first APECS Pilot Line Open Access Call, starting on 1 April, invites companies, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), startups, research and technology organisations (RTOs), and universities to submit project ideas for selected pilot line technologies. This initiative seeks to enable access to advanced infrastructure for semiconductor research and development. Participants can test and validate their semiconductor innovations using various available technologies, including:

  • Characterization, Test & Reliability (CTR)
  • Multi Project Wafer (MPW) runs
  • Integration & Packaging Technologies
  • Imaging Technologies, Post-CMOS Photonic Platform & IPD planar components.

For more information, visit the APECS website.

Background:

APECS is the Pilot Line for Advanced Packaging and Heterogeneous Integration for Electronic Components and Systems. Co-funded by Horizon Europe, Digital Europe and Member State authorities, it brings together the technological competences, infrastructure, and know-how of ten partners from eight European countries: Germany (Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft as coordinator, FBH, IHP), France (CEA-Leti), Belgium (imec), Finland (VTT), Austria (TU Graz), Greece (FORTH), Spain (IMB-CNM, CSIC) and Portugal (INL).

PREMIERE: ILVO participates in research strengthening the multi-actor approach

Funded under Horizon Europe (HORIZON-CL6-2022-GOVERNANCE-01-14), running from 2023 to 2027, PREMIERE aims to strengthen the multi-actor approach by supporting the development of more relevant, coherent, and well-prepared project proposals. Flanders Research Institute for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (EV ILVO) is partner in the project consortium and leads the work package on the development and dissemination of practical tools to help stakeholders prepare successful multi-actor proposals.
