The Finnish Chips Competence Centre

FICCC white.png

In collaboration with our industrial and research partners, we are pursuing a chip competence center in Finland, which will speed up the digitalization of industry and other fields with the help of chip technology.

 

The competence center will support the development of chips that create a competitive advantage for the needs of different industries and increase the European demand for advanced chip technologies. FiCCC will be part of European Network of Competence Centres and co-funded by ChipsJU and Business Finland.

The Finnish Chips Competence Centre (FiCCC) aims to create a gateway for Finnish chips ecosystem to connect with the wider European ecosystem and speed up the growth and competitiveness of Finnish and European semiconductor sector.

​

​Competence centres in semiconductors play an essential role in the Chips for Europe Initiative. The centres will provide access to technical expertise and experimentation in the area of semiconductors, helping companies, SMEs in particular, to approach and improve design capabilities and developing skills. Competence centres will provide services to semiconductor stakeholders, including start-ups and SMEs.

​

FiCCC will focus on strengthening the European knowledge base in two interrelated competence areas where Finland has the best capacities to contribute at the European level.

  • High performance energy efficient and complex system-on-chip design

  • Specialized manufacturing and integration processes, including quantum technologies, MEMS, RF and optoelectronics, wide band gap semiconductors (SiC and GaN), ALD and MBE technologies

About FiCCC

The key target is to offer easy-to-access first-line support and widened access to technical expertise and experimentation in semiconductors.

 

FiCCC will act as one-stop-shop, facilitating the Finnish stakeholders’ access to not only Finnish semiconductor competences, but also Chips Pilot lines, design platform, European network of Competence centers and other relevant European initiatives; The aim is to assure that Finns interested in semiconductor technologies will have smooth access and contacts to all relevant European services and support.

 

By doing this, FiCCC is also a lead-generating partner for the European initiatives. Simultaneously, FiCCC will act as an interface to non-Finnish stakeholders and Finnish expertise; guiding users who may benefit from those Finnish capabilities that are leading edge in European and global level.
