Serving the European microelectronics industry, FAMES aims to advance and strengthen the European Union's semiconductor capabilities and guarantee its technological sovereignty.
To encourage the emergence of higher-performance, more energy-efficient and more sustainable chips, FAMES represents an investment of €830m, including 1,900m² of clean rooms and almost 100 new machines.
At the head of FAMES, the CEA is a key player in semiconductor research, recognised for its ability to bring technologies to maturity before transferring them to industry.

The European Commission has entrusted us with the task of federating players around our Lab to Fab model, preparing and transferring technologies while anticipating the needs of industrial partners for their future products. To achieve this, we'll be working with everyone - academics and manufacturers, from start-ups to major groups - to create real value chains at European level through R&D and the associated training efforts.
