Overview:

World-leading physical and intellectual resources critical to the semiconductor industry ecosystem, each specializing in a specific area of the complex R&D and manufacturing processes, are spread far and wide across the United States. The National Semiconductor Technology Center can build the unifying platform that enables these innovators across the nation to work on pioneering technology that strengthen the country’s economic and national security. By rallying the ecosystem around breakthrough challenges — market-driven problems that no one entity can solve on its own — the NSTC can help lead the ecosystem towards moon shots that benefit numerous end markets and applications.  Join the webinar to learn more.
