Collaboration Agreement with BAE
POET Technologies Inc. (the “Company”) signed a contract with BAE Systems under which BAE Systems will provide non-exclusive third-party foundry services in support of the Company’s “Lab-to-Fab” transition plan. The current phase of the work will be performed between March 2015 and August 2015. Key objectives of the collaboration include process transfer, prototype builds and design enablement kit development. Using BAE Systems’ ISO Certified manufacturing facility will improve the quality, process control and analytical capacity of prototype builds. The result will be both a more manufacturable process and improved optimization of the device structures included in the POET technology.
