The first Chip Zero Ecosystem event was held 14th of December, 2023, in Espoo.
Chip Zero project was launched in 2023 with a mission to develop chips with zero lifetime emissions. We aim to create the first semiconductor ecosystem in Finland to make this happen.
The first Ecosystem Event was organized to discuss the latest news on co-innovation projects, Business Finland funding reserved for them and how companies and other organization can be part of the upcoming projects for shaping the future of Finnish semiconductor industry.
