Clustering in Microelectronics :for developing Regional Centers of Excellence
Clustering : a strong and intimate regional cooperationwith shared vision ,between Education , Research & Industry, supported by regional/national Public Authorities and Institutions, for creating regional Centers of Excellencewith Business development and Job creation.

Clustering :an enabler for Micro & NanoElectronics
• Micro and Nano-Electronics can survive and grow within the highly competitive Semiconductor environment only through Clusters , with:
- a permanent interaction between resources from Education, Research & Industry within joint projects=> innovation , business strategy, competitive positioning
- a regional proximity of the Co-Actors of the solution, an easy communication, a same culture, a shared vision=> speed , fast time-to-solution
- a sharing of means , a complementarity of know-how, a contribution of each local Actor to the full value chain => cost competitiveness
- a strong support from regional Authorities and Institutions=> growth , long-term investment, sustainable projects

� Most prosperous semiconductor industries in the worldhave grown around strong Regional Clusters with a significant public support :
�Asia : strong cluster policy in place since the beginnings of the industry inSingapore, Taiwan, China and Korea, with large dimension of scale andstrong investor incentives
�USA: after a tough competition with Japan and Korea, the semiconductorindustry has re-emerged thanks to several large state-financed clusters(Albany Nanotech, ISDA East Fishkill) and to federal programs from Dept of Defense, Dept of Energy and to support from Top Authorities.
�Europe : many small clusters, specialized ; only a few clusters with critical mass are able to compete at the international level; a Cluster Policy atthe European level is expected from KET initiative from European Commission
Clustering in the world 7

Cluster cooperation in Europeseveral dimensions
• Each Cluster is specific , with its own history, organization, strengths and competences
• A Cluster cooperation either within a Country, either within a Continentor at WW level shall be beneficial to both parties if the cooperation is driven by joint projects leveraging the respective strengths of the Partners
• In Europe, this Cluster cooperation has got several dimensions :
- One-to-one cooperation. ( Best example is Grenoble-Dresden case )
- Within European Projects ( Best example is “Silicon Europe” project with 5 clusters )
- At a larger scale, between all clusters, through the European Semiconductor Cluster Forum

• mutual enrichment through exchanges, benchmarking, sharing of best practices
• launch joint initiatives that will benefit both clusters, mainly in selected areas (Education, Research, Industrial)
• improve the international image of the two clusters as leaders of the European semiconductor industry
• attract more attention and support from European Authorities, through a joint advocacy process
• increase the awareness of public opinion about the European semiconductor industry and the two clusters
• contribute to the strengthening of the whole European Semiconductor Industry around its top clusters

EESC – EC DG CONNECT Conference Brussels, November 12, 2014 EESC – EC DG CONNECT Conference Brussels, November 12, 2014
• development of many personal relationships, by sector of activity, allowing easy and efficient one-to-one contacts and BtoB opportunities.
• mutual trust between the two communities, favorable to joint projects ( example : KET Pilot Line project )
• joint initiative from industrial actors : cross-visits, benchmarking exercise ( example : utilities consumption between Wafer Operations of both cities)
• joint advocacy of Semiconductor Industry by Authorities and Key Actors of both Clusters ( example KET , …)
• joint initiative of European Semiconductor Cluster Forum .
• rotation of several Conferences ( DATE, ISCDG,…) and events ( SEMICON Europa ) between the two Cities
• solid foundations for “Silicon Europe” project

European Semiconductor Cluster Forum :first achievements
19
• Initiated by Grenoble and Dresden Clusters in october 2011, with strong encouragement of SEMI Europe and European Commission.
• Running twice a year at a different cluster location (April : Cork - Ireland within MIDAS Cluster ; October : Grenoble - France )
• After 7 Forums conducted up to now, main benefit has been:
- the recording of the various clusters with contact references, - a mutual cross-knowledge about vision, membership, competences,activities...
( to be extended during the visit of each Cluster at a Forum session of two) - a sharing of information (events, BtoB meetings, project preparation, ...)- the mutual enrichment with the experience of “ Silicon Europe “ project- the set-up of “ Allée des Clusters “ at next SEMICON Europa 2014- the awareness that Clusters should be :
+more visible within the panorama of European Semiconductor Industry, +more advocated in front of European Authorities and Bodies+more organised for providing more benefit to their Members (SME‘s first)

�We got the vision :
“I want Europe to produce more chips in Europe than the United States produces domestically. It's a realistic goal if we channel our investments properly…We have to reinforce and connect our existing strongholds and develop new strengths. “

European Microelectronics Clusters:Part of EU Electronics Strategy
21
EESC – EC DG CONNECT Conference Brussels, November 12, 2014 EESC – EC DG CONNECT Conference Brussels, November 12, 2014
� Clusters are contributing to the implementationof the EU Strategy :
- Clusters are providing the resources, the expertize, theinnovation capabilities and the agility from the Regions, firstlythrough their SME’s
- Their cooperation will :
� reinforce cooperation along the supply chain
� network the Regions and exploit their complementarities
� create the critical mass of Investment at EU level and will build the overall European Ecosystem
� spread benefits of local investments across supply chain and across Europe

The European Semiconductor Clusters are sharing the following statements :
1. Clusters are the first spokesmen of the SME’s ( >80% of their Members )
2. Clusters are crucial for innovation, very often generated by SME’s
=>Clusters are at the heart of the Smart Specialization of the Regions
3. Competitiveness is global .
4. Only strong Clusters, with critical mass and international competitiveness, can sustain the overall European Semiconductor Ecosystem
=> No international leadership without a strong European cluster policy

Conclusion
� Clusters are vital for European Semiconductor Indu stry, since providing at Regional level a significant competitive advantage
in agility, innovation capability and support to SME’s
� Clusters are on the way to organize their cooperatio n with “One Single Voice” around the European Semiconductor Cluster Forum
and beyond the “Silicon Europe” Project
� Clusters are expecting a strong European Incentive Cluster Policy for getting competiveness and developing inter-regional cooperation
