INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION (SEP 16,2020) KEY FINDINGS: . A strong domestic semiconductor manufacturing presence is critical to America’s economic competitiveness, national security, and supply chain resilience . The share of global semiconductor manufacturing located in the U.S. has plummeted in recent decades, mostly because competing governments offer large incentives and the U.S. does not . Robust federal incentives for semiconductor manufacturing are needed to strengthen national security, attract substantial chip manufacturing to the U.S., and create tens of thousands of jobs 8 Initiatives within the microelectronics cluster "Silicon Saxony„ to strenghens EU Semicon Ind - Example 1 IMPORTANT PROJECT OF COMMON EUROPEAN INTEREST – MICROELECTRONICS (IPCEI) . IPCEI 1 on microelectronics was a big success, e.g. • Establishment of Bosch Fab in Dresden • R&D & Invest opportunities for existing fabs & foundries . Need for IPCEI 2 • Focus on Safety, Security, Sustainability and Sovereignty Source: ipcei-me.eu 9 Initiatives within the microelectronics cluster "Silicon Saxony„ to strenghens EU RTO landscape - Example 2 TESTING AND EXPERIMENTATION FACILITIES (TEF) WITHIN DIGITAL EUROPE PROGRAM . TEF for Edge AI - funding instrument at EU level to strengthen Hardware AI research in Europe, focus on CAPEX; i.e. funding for equipment investment .

  • Note Silicon Saxony Day 2010
    AMBASSADE DE FRANCE EN ALLEMAGNE SERVICE POUR LA SCIENCE ET LA TECHNOLOGIE Berlin, le 20 mai 2010 Rapprochement entre Dresde et Grenoble lors du salon Silicon Saxony Day 2010: 1. La région de la Saxe La Saxe (Sachsen), est le Länder le plus peuplé de l'Allemagne de l'Est et le 6 ème au niveau fédéral. Il a une frontière commune avec la Pologne et la République tchèque. Les villes les plus importantes sont Dresde et Leipzig avec environ 515.000 habitants. En 2007, son PIB de 93 milliards d’euros représente 3,8% de celui du pays, tandis que son PIB/habitants de 22,1 k€ le place en dessous de la moyenne nationale (29 k€) et de l’ensemble des régions françaises, bien que ce soit la meilleure performance pour les Länder de l’Est (hors Berlin). L'économie saxonne s’appuie sur les secteurs traditionnels comme les mines, le bâtiment, l’automobile, mais aussi sur des technologies de pointe comme la microélectronique, l'énergie et les biotechnologies . Le tissu industriel se compose d’environ 150.000 entreprises en majorité des PME. 0,1% des entreprises ont plus de 500 employés et réalisent plus de 50 millions d’euros de chiffre d’affaires. En 2008, le secteur des hautes technologies emploie 55 % des salariés de la Saxe. Dans la branche des nanotechnologies, 80 entreprises (sur 500 pour l’ensemble de l’Allemagne) sont implantées à Dresde et sa région, ainsi que 40 centres de recherche spécialisés dans ce domaine. En plus de ses quatre Universités Techniques (Dresde, Chemnitz, Freiberg et Leipzig) comptant plus de 75.000 étudiants, la Saxe comporte plus de 50 instituts de recherche extra-universitaires.
