Welcome to the Next Level Semiconductor Network.
Chip Connect BW connects industry, research, and policy along the entire semiconductor value chain in the state.
Chip Connect BW
Chip Connect BW brings together forces from research, industry, and policy to make Baden-Württemberg an effective, future-proof hub for microelectronics. The network, funded by the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Labour and Tourism Baden-Württemberg, is coordinated by microTEC Südwest. Participation is free of charge – membership in microTEC Südwest is not required.
Why Chip Connect BW?
… of the chips needed in Europe are imported – with an increasing trend. Baden-Württemberg wants to break this dependency through a high-performance semiconductor ecosystem. Chip Connect BW is the platform for translating research results into market-ready solutions – with a focus on AI, chiplets, and sustainable mobility.
Chip Connect BW is building a network that unites leading players from research, industry, and policy: the goal is to bring research results into application faster and to promote chip technologies "Made in The Länd."
A strong semiconductor ecosystem for The Länd.
