The Microelectronics Commons: A National Network of Prototyping Innovation Hubs
The Microelectronics Commons is creating a direct pathway to reduce the country’s reliance on foreign microelectronics and safeguard the nation from supply chain risks.
About Microelectronics Commons
Funded by the CHIPS and Science Act, the Microelectronics Commons program is a network of regional technology Hubs acting on a shared mission: to expand the nation’s global leadership in microelectronics. The Microelectronics Commons program is accelerating domestic prototyping and growing a pipeline of U.S.-based semiconductor talent.
The Microelectronics Commons Hubs
The Microelectronics Commons program comprises eight regional Hubs, each focused on multiple technology areas and supported by their network of commercial innovators. If you are interested in learning more, register for the Microelectronics Commons Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C.
