Microelectronics is becoming one of Europe’s most strategic technologies. From semiconductors and radio hardware to sensors and embedded systems, these capabilities are increasingly linked to innovation, competitiveness, and technological sovereignty.

At this OpenTech Talks event, we explore how Skåne’s microelectronics ecosystem developed – and what it will take to strengthen its role in Europe’s semiconductor future.

The seminar brings together perspectives from industry, startups, and regional development actors, including:

• Ericsson – on four decades of radio hardware research in Lund
• BeammWave / AlixLabs – on building semiconductor startups in Skåne
• Region Skåne – on strengthening Europe’s semiconductor ecosystem through regional collaboration

The event will also bring together European regional delegations, companies, and researchers for networking and matchmaking across the microelectronics value chain.
