Centre could create 300 high-tech jobs

The money - put up by the UK Government as part of its investment in Glasgow City Region Innovation Zone projects - will accelerate semiconductor packaging innovation at the National Manufacturing Institute Scotland (NMIS).

It will fund a national hub for the development of advanced semiconductor packaging - a component needed for the manufacturing of next generation technologies from AI to computing and photonics.

In a first for Europe, the new facility - dubbed the National Advanced Semiconductor Packaging and Integration Centre (NASPIC) - will enable faster development of semiconductor devices, reducing packaging lead times from months to days.

It will also reduce the UK's reliance on importing conductors from overseas.
