ESMC is preparing its Dresden factory for machine installation in 2027. Can the planned investment of more than €10 billion deliver reliable chips at a competitive cost—and give smaller European customers access to production?
CEA-Leti and ISRL have launched SubFAB Labs to study what chip manufacturing releases into exhaust gases and wastewater. The Grenoble pilot line will help suppliers test sensors and treatment systems under conditions that resemble industrial production.
