Abstract
With the semiconductor industry becoming a geopolitical issue, the EU is now aiming for tech sovereignty in this field and recently presented the Chips Act. Ewit Roos, CEO at PhotonDelta, will clarify the position of the Dutch integrated photonics industry in Europe and the strategy as outlined in the Dutch National Growth Fund proposal. By awarding this proposal, PhotonDelta will land €1.1 billion to fund its six-year program to invest in application technology, industrialisation, ecosystem development and internationalisation.
