Fraunhofer - Verbund Mikroeleketronik

Founded in 1996, the Fraunhofer Group for Microelectronics coordinates the research activities of the Fraunhofer institutes working in the fields of microelectronics. Since April 2017, eleven Fraunhofer institutes of the Group for Microelectronics have been working together with two Leibniz institutes FBH and IHP as the Research Fab Microelectronics Germany (FMD). As a one-stop shop, FMD has been combining scientific excellence, application-oriented technologies and system solutions into a customer-specific offer in the field of micro- and nanoelectronics. The activities of the Fraunhofer Group for Microelectronics and the FMD are coordinated by the joint office in Berlin. This office represents the institutes and acts as a central point of contact for research, industry and politics as well as for the cooperation partners.
