The entire Western society relies on the efforts of the semiconductor industry. The market is expected to reach a size of US$1 trillion by 2030. Finland is a key player in the industry, and in terms of Finland's competitiveness, we are on the brink of a new gaming industry. Enormous growth brings with it an equally great responsibility. The rise of the industry also increases its environmental effects, and we need to turn our attention to them now.
Business Finland has granted Picosun a significant funding for initiating and driving the Chip Zero project. The project will bring together Finnish semiconductor companies with a common objective of developing more efficient chips and minimizing the environmental impact of manufacturing.
