JEMI UK Ltd launches its new technical program

JEMI UK is the Joint Equipment and Materials Initiative. It is the only association truly representing the interests of manufacturers and suppliers of equipment, materials and services for Semiconductor production across the UK and Ireland.

As part of the value added services offered to its members, JEMI organises technical visits to major fabs across the UK and Europe. The purpose of these visits is to give members access to major organisations not usually open to them and encourages member to member networking. Previous visits have included Intel Ireland, Philips Semiconductor, Infineon and IQE.

The next JEMI organised technical visit will be to Zarlink Advanced Electronic Packaging in Caldicot, Wales on the 25th September.
Zarlink are experts in delivering semiconductor solutions that drive the capabilities of voice, enterprise, broadband and wireless communications and the visit will provide the perfect opportunity for members to gain an in-depth insight into the company while further increasing their company contacts.

Zarlink speakers will discuss the challenges and opportunities associated with wireless medical devices and the Benefits of European and DTI collaborations.
JEMI invited speakers include Chris Williams from the Displays and lighting KTN discussing the possibility of supplying LED's for the Olympics and Andrew Philips from Cambridge University discussing a new collaborative programme regarding LED's.
A table-top exhibition will also take place throughout the day, allowing members to market their latest technology.

The visits represent a unique way for the host fabs engineering staff to meet new contacts in their own facility without the need to travel. The meetings also ensure that the networking takes place in a less pressured environment than normal sales or technical meetings would allow when everyone tends to be under intense time pressure and there is little time to explore new ideas.

The next JEMI technical visit will be to Rockwood Electronic Materials on the 14th November.
