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).

Luciad - Geospatial software for mission-critical operations

Founded in 1999, Luciad serves clients in Europe, Asia and the Americas. Though it recently was acquired by Hexagon Geospatial, they kept an agile SME mindset. Thousands of end users work directly with Luciad’s geospatial applications, and major systems integrators (think Airbus Defense and Space, Lufthansa Systems, NATO, Thales…) incorporate its software in their own products.

NCP Flanders went to Leuven to interview Frederic Houbie, the Research Projects Manager at Luciad, about how he sees Horizon 2020. Luciad is a partner in the MARISA project, which is a collaborative RIA project submitted to an ICT call topic
