Semiconductors: Research
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, whether he plans to expand the UK’s semiconductor research base.
Answered by Feryal Clark
UK semiconductor research is exceptional and is a driving force for growth in the wider semiconductor sector. The government will support semiconductor innovation and commercialisation activities from foundational research to enabling sustainable company growth. The Innovation and Knowledge Centres are already helping world-class academics conduct commercially oriented semiconductor research. Our partnerships with the US, Japan, and the Republic of Korea and our participation in the EU Chips Joint Undertaking enable UK researchers to collaborate internationally on cutting-edge semiconductor technology.
