Digital, Industry & Space Semiconductors

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).

RUSTICA - Converting organic residues into bio-based fertiliser products

The RUSTICA project obtained funding under Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic ‘Closing nutrient cycles’.  RUSTICA focuses on demonstration and implementation of circular bio-based nutrient valorisation chains, focusing on waste from the fruit and vegetable agro-food system. The project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2024. It will use a strong multi-actor approach to co-create both socio-economic and technological knowledge in four case study regions in Europe and one in Colombia. The Flanders-based company DRANCO is one of the project partners and acts as technical project manager for the entire project. DRANCO participates in the project to develop its own technologies, to network and to help make the transition to a more circular based economy.
