It will bring together government, universities, and the private sector to support key components of the Semiconductor Strategy to grow the sector, which is backed by \u00a31bn.<\/p>\n
In the future, the Institute will be established as an independent organisation tasked with ensuring chip researchers have the tools and infrastructure needed to advance their work in these focus areas and convert their innovation into market-ready products.<\/p>\n
As further international semiconductor agreements<\/a> are made, the Institute will also act as a coordinated entry point for technology businesses and international partners who want to work with the UK semiconductor sector to boost innovation<\/a>, research and commercialisation.<\/p>\n Technology Minister Saqib Bhatti explained: \u201cSemiconductors underpin all the technology that keeps our economy moving.<\/p>\n \u201cOur strategy set out that we would grow the sector and make it resilient by focussing on what the British chip sector does best.\u201d<\/p>\n He added: \u201cBuilding on the early success of the strategy, the UK Semiconductor Institute will unify the semiconductor sector to focus our talented researchers on securing our status at the cutting edge of semiconductor science.\u201d<\/p>\n
