📋 Description

• You advise G3C clients in preparing technology projects in the areas of chip design and heterogeneous integration. • Together with the G3C expert team, you conduct feasibility analyses, identify implementation partners and locate suitable infrastructure in the European pilot lines (in particular APECS). • You help companies without prior semiconductor expertise achieve product innovations through chip technologies. • You raise the visibility of the G3C offering through contributions at events (trade fairs, association meetings, conferences) and build contacts with SMEs, startups, investors and other partners. • You present the work and successes of the G3C in collaboration with the PR team on social media and the G3C websites. • You participate in meetings of around 30 European competence centres at various locations across Europe, visit competence clusters in Germany and network the G3C with the German chip design ecosystem. • You become familiar with the offerings of the European pilot lines and other implementation partners in Europe in order to advise your clients as effectively as possible.
