Workshop description (PDF)

DESCRIPTION

Analog and Mixed-Signal is a core design competency in the UK, with complete design supply chain
coverage from IP concept through to product release, including a strong research base.

Recognising this strength, and the need to increase awareness of the intrinsic UK supply chain, NMI
established the Analog and Mixed-Signal Network with the second meeting to be held at the Swindon Innovation Centre on Thursday 30th June.

Event Sponsors:
NMI would like to thank SETsquared for providing the event venue. SETsquared is a joint venture between the Universities of Bath, Bristol, Southampton and Surrey to help knowledge-based entrepreneurs in Southern England.

About NMI:
The National Microelectronics Institute (NMI) is a not-for-profit organisation which is the focal point for the Microelectronics Industry in the UK. NMI members are semiconductor design houses, manufacturers, vendors and research organisations. The Institute provides a mechanism for collaboration, business development and growth across the sector, involving the supply chain, regional bodies and government.
