Our Merck Electronics CEO Kai Beckmann had the chance to discuss the further expansion of our semiconductor business with the leading business daily Handelsblatt. Kai spoke about why we will enter the exciting field of metrology and inspection technology, which is becoming increasingly important in the chip industry, and why we are very well positioned to optimally support the production of advanced semiconductors. As you will know, Merck Electronics is a leader in advanced packaging technologies such as the heterogeneous integration of chiplets or HBM memories. The acquisition of the French company UnitySC announced in July will enable us to use innovative 3D measurement tools which are essential for these new technologies. Errors in the delicate structures of the chips will be detected in an efficient and reliable way. The article also addresses why we benefit especially from nodes of five nanometers and less and how Merck Electronics responds to the fact that most modern chip factories are currently being built on a large scale in the USA, Taiwan, and South Korea. To be as close to our customers as possible, we are expanding worldwide. The full article is in German only 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eAt7KQw4 #semiconductorindustry #chips #innovation #technology

Our Merck Electronics CEO Kai Beckmann recently had the chance to speak with Helmut Martin-Jung from Süddeutsche Zeitung about the future of the semiconductor industry in Europe. Since the article was published in German, we have summarized some of the key points here: 🚀 To revitalize this industry in Europe, it is vital to increase manufacturing capacity. However, merely building new production facilities is not enough to strengthen the European semiconductor sector. 🚀 It's essential to develop the labor market further to ensure a steady supply of highly-qualified specialists. 🚀 The EU Chips Act is a crucial step toward achieving independence for the European semiconductor industry. Currently, however, the Act only helps prevent the gap from widening between Europe and the leading semiconductor nations. We need to accelerate our efforts, create more competitive clusters, and enhance vertical integration. 🚀 The semiconductor industry will continue to be one of the most globalized sectors. At the same time, we will see stronger local anchoring. This means complete self-sufficiency should not be our goal; instead, policies should promote global cooperation and exchange. https://lnkd.in/eFaxMqCj
