Si2 today celebrates its membership to the National Semiconductor Technology Center (NSTC) as the public-private consortium established by the CHIPS and Science Act surpasses 100 signed members. Si2 is a core member of the NSTC and supports it’s mission to accelerate U.S.-led semiconductor research and innovation, build a strong domestic semiconductor workforce, and strengthen the United States’ leadership position in the global semiconductor industry.
The NSTC’s mission aligns with Si2’s commitment to provide a unique, collaborative environment and access to shared solutions for users and suppliers from corporations, institutions and academia. In addition to engaging with members across the U.S. semiconductor ecosystem, Si2 members will benefit from the NSTC’s efforts to facilitate access to electronic design automation (EDA) and design resources, tools, and shared datasets.
Operated by Natcast, an independent non-profit entity, the mission of the NSTC is to convene members from across the U.S. semiconductor value chain, academia, and government to advance three shared and strategic goals: strengthen U.S. semiconductor leadership; reduce time from lab-to-fab; and expand the U.S. semiconductor workforce. NSTC Members benefit from access to leading-edge research, state-of-the-art facilities, shared physical and digital assets, dedicated events and collaboration opportunities, and employer-driven workforce development programming.
