Government of Canada supporting manufacturing and commercialization of semiconductors

posted on Jul 04, 2024 02:23PM

MONTRÉAL, July 4, 2024 /CNW/ - Canada continues to position itself as a global supplier of semiconductors, crucial for security, economy and technological progress. Semiconductors are critical to Canadians' daily lives and for current and future innovations in nearly every industry: automotive, telecommunications, low-carbon technology, and more.

Today, the Honourable François-Philippe Champagne, Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry, announced an investment of $120 million in an over $220 million project led by CMC Microsystems (CMC). This investment, made through the Strategic Innovation Fund, will support the creation of a pan-Canadian network bringing together stakeholders from a wide range of fields to support the design, manufacturing and commercialization of semiconductors and the development of state-of-the-art intelligent sensor technology.
