The Ricardo Valle Institute of Innovation Foundation (Innova IRV) and its president, Ezequiel Navarro, CEO of the Premo Group, will be part of the \u2018Committee of Experts\u2019 established by the Spanish Government, in order to ensure coordination and effectiveness of the investments and actions that are going to be developed within the framework of the PERTE Chip project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This advisory board is made up of 11 international and renowned people in the microelectronics and semiconductors industry. They were selected due to its professional profile so that the fields comprised in the PERTE Chip ecosystem are represented, that is, the business and academic fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ezequiel Navarro will represent Innova IRV in this committee that will provide information and strategic advice to the commissioner in order to maximise the impact of the project on microchips manufacturing and design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Regarding Innova IRV\u2019s participation in this committee, Navarro pointed out that \u201cthe fact that the Government included several members of Ametic and the collaborative innovation project that I represent through the Ricardo Valle Foundation underscores the importance of public-private ecosystems in the development of a strategy in the semiconductors field.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe are deeply grateful for this recognition and we are committed to promoting national collaborative projects, such as the DKULPIOT project,\u201d he highlighted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the first meeting of this committee of experts, which was held last week, the committee analysed the progress made in the first year of the PERTE Chip project. This first year was marked by the announcements of investments in the sector by multinationals such as Cisco, Intel, Open Chip and Broadcom, which will build a substrate manufacturing plant key for microchips production. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This period was also marked by the first aid scheme launched within the framework of the PERTE Chip project in cooperation with the Centre for the Development of Technology and Innovation (CDTI). The aid scheme, called \u2018Misiones Chip\u2019 (Chip Missions), with an investment of \u20ac60 million, is addressed to R&D projects that strengthen scientific capabilities in the microelectronics and semiconductors field and that boost public-private cooperation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
