The semiconductor sector showed presence at this year’s Slush, with Business Finland and FiCCC hosting a chip-themed side event Deep Tech Boost that brought together Finnish startups, industry leaders and global investors in the semiconductor domain.

Techritory 2025 in Riga brought together over 600 participants from across Europe to discuss the future of connectivity, digital infrastructure, and semiconductor technologies. For FiCCC, this was more than a conference—it was a pivotal moment to help shape a new phase of Nordic–Baltic cooperation in semiconductors.  Political Commitment and Strategic Dialogue  The Techritory forum opened with a strong political signal: Latvia’s Prime Minister Evika Siliņa  emphasized that s

FiCCC will take part in the Mobile World Congress 2026 (MWC Barcelona, March 2–5) - one of the world’s most influential technology events - to manifest Finland’s capabilities in semiconductors and microelectronics on the global stage.

Industry leaders, researchers, and innovators gathered in Tampere for a joint session between Future Mobile Working Machine and the Finnish semiconductor ecosystem to discuss semiconductors; chips, sensors and the urgent need for Europe and Finland to strengthen sovereignty in designing and manufacturing these foundational technologies.

The Nordic Chip Meet-Up in Lund (20–21 August 2025) gathered industry leaders, researchers, policymakers, and innovators from across the region to discuss the future of microelectronics and semiconductors.
