90 million NOK (7.7 mill euro) to Norwegian investment in microchips

A new competence center called CC-NorChip will make it easier for companies and research organizations to gain access to technology and infrastructure in Norway and Europe.

SINTEF, four Norwegian universities and the independent industry association, Electronic Coast, have been designated as one of 27 European competence centers for microchips, with support from the EU and the Research Council of Norway. The USA, China and the EU are investing heavily in the design, development and production of microchips, which are strategically important in almost all industries from health to energy, industry, aquaculture, transport and defence. In the EU, the investment is organized through the European Chips Act, which was launched in 2023 and has a total framework of 43 billion euro.
