Research Laboratories Microelectronics Germany – Young talents for integrated electronics (ForLab-NataliE)
MOTIVATION
Making universities visible as key drivers of innovation in research-intensive microelectronics
Accelerating the transfer of technology into application
Promoting the training of young talent beyond university boundaries
Expansion into a nationwide and internationally visible university network for semiconductor technology and microelectronics
GOALS AND APPROACH
Consolidation of the cooperation structures of the research laboratories
Expansion of the network by including further university locations
Creation of standardised guidelines (and thus cooperation) for cleanrooms and laboratories to simplify access, especially for SMEs, start-ups and research groups
Development of the ‘Competence Atlas’ information platform (visibility of available facilities, research and teaching profiles, industrial cooperation between universities)
Pilot projects for cross-university formats for student training and recruiting young talent as nationwide examples of best practice
Networking with national and European training initiatives such as the Microelectronics Academy of the Research Fab Microelectronics Germany (FMD)
INNOVATIONS AND PROSPECTS
Strengthening the skilled labour and young talent base for the electronics of the future
Promoting an efficient and cooperative microelectronics ecosystem in Germany and Europe
Supporting the sovereign development of innovative semiconductor chips and microelectronic systems in Germany
