The chip industry is experiencing significant growth and innovation and covers a wide range of activities, from materials and process technology to semiconductor and sensor design. Established in 2024, The Nordic Chip Collaboration initiative aims to enhance cooperation across the Nordics, strengthen the region's position in the global semiconductor market, and contribute to a greener, more sustainable industry.
This 2-day physical meet-up in Helsinki aims to facilitate networking and discussion on a range of topics among the Nordic Chip ecosystem. We invite participants to engage and get involved! Additional information and more detailed program to be updated to this page.
