We are driving the semiconductor manufacturing ecosystem in India by delivering tools and nurturing top talent. The IIT Bombay-Applied Materials partnership has led to India’s first university–based facility with 200 mm fab tools, three on-site labs focusing on Nanotechnology, Chemistry & Material Sciences and R&D on next-generation technologies. In addition, we helped build India’s first Semiconductor Technology and Manufacturing Certification Program. We are 1 of 5 industry partners who have joined forces with universities and national laboratories with leading battery research programs. Our venture investment in Norsk Titanium reflects our charter to identify and accelerate innovation around the globe. We are committed to applying our leadership in materials engineering to accelerate industrial applications for Norsk’s rapid plasma deposition technology. Tyndall is a strategic research partner and we are engaging with them on both Atomic Layer Deposition-related topics, where we donated two state-of-the-art 300mm ALD chambers, and other areas of interest where Tyndall demonstrates world-class research capabilities. We also maintain a Researcher-in-Residence working directly alongside Tyndall academic and industry partners. We support researchers and academics by sponsoring research and helping to commercialize cutting edge science.
