The aim of this project is to consolidate the cooperation structures of the research laboratories and expand them by including additional university locations. The creation of uniform guidelines for cleanrooms and laboratories will simplify access, particularly for SMEs, start-ups and research groups, and thus their collaboration. The “Competence Atlas” information platform will make the available facilities, research and teaching profiles as well as the universities’ industrial collaborations visible. In addition, cross-university formats for student training and recruiting young talent will be piloted as nationwide examples of best practice and networked with national and European training initiatives such as the Microelectronics Academy of the Research Fab Microelectronics Germany (FMD).
