AMSTERDAM (Reuters) – Computer chip makers and semiconductor supply chain firms on Wednesday called on the European Commission to launch a new support program as a follow up to the 2023 Chips Act, this time focusing on chip design, materials and equipment, in addition to manufacturing.
Following a meeting with top sector firms and European lawmakers in Brussels, industry groups ESIA, representing chipmakers, and SEMI Europe, representing the broader industry, said they would send their plea for a ‘Chips Act 2.0’ to Commission digital chief Henna Virkkunen.
