Chief Technology Officer, Analog Devices

“ADI has been a proud supporter of the National Semiconductor Technology Center (NSTC) since the public-private partnership was first envisioned. As an industry leader in R&D, and one that has been deeply involved with industry and university groups to shape the NSTC’s mission and objectives, we are thrilled to celebrate this milestone. The NSTC’s unique approach to membership will harness capabilities across the U.S. semiconductor ecosystem, from materials and equipment suppliers to end customers, driving advancements in microelectronics that would not be possible otherwise. We look forward to embarking on this exciting innovation journey with the NSTC and partners in industry and academia—and playing our part in ensuring the U.S. continues to lead in semiconductor R&D.”

“Advances in semiconductor technology and manufacturing require collaboration. Through the public-private ecosystem IBM has fostered at the Albany NanoTech Complex in partnership with NY CREATES and other industry leaders, we have shown how working together can accelerate semiconductor research and development, as well as strengthen our supply chains. We support Natcast’s NSTC Membership program to connect even more industry leaders, startups, government agencies, and academic institutions. Together, these members can use NSTC resources to power the American semiconductor industry and strengthen the U.S. semiconductor workforce.”

President & CEO, SRC

“SRC is excited to partner with Natcast at this once-in-a-generation moment. The opening of NSTC membership will continue critical efforts to advance semiconductor research, attract and build our workforce, and keep the U.S. at the forefront of semiconductor innovation. We are inspired, activated, and engaged!”

“Technology advancements across all sectors require increasingly advanced chips for increasingly complex systems and the associated EDA and IP solutions required to design them. It is essential for the U.S. to continue investing in both semiconductor manufacturing and R&D capabilities. We applaud the official launch of the NSTC’s membership and look forward to working with the other members, policymakers, academic institutions, our partners and customers on R&D initiatives that strengthen U.S. semiconductor industry leadership and foster the next generation of innovators.”
