High Tech NL Semiconductors is the sector organization by and for innovative Dutch semiconductors companies and knowledge institutes, and is committed to the collective interests of the sector, with a focus on long-term innovation and international collaboration. High Tech NL members, with special interest for and/or within the semiconductor industry, share their knowledge, look for ways to cooperate, and use the powerful networks to become more successful innovators.

Our Mission & Vision

We believe that, for a sustainable future, the high tech sector is a driver for tackling global societal challenges and innovation is necessary to maintain our current level of wealth and wellbeing. By connecting the entire Dutch ecosystem, from small to large companies, to government and knowledge institutions, we aim to be the driver for innovation, partnerships and growth of the semiconductor industry.

Successful cooperation

Cooperation and innovation form an important foundation for success. The long-term perspective of the semiconductors industry demands continuous innovation and therefore cooperation between industry and knowledge institutes. No single company can master all technologies needed to generate true innovations and/or substantial breakthrough innovations. Creating a network where companies and institutes can find technology partners in the Netherlands and abroad, is the main goal for High Tech NL Semiconductors.

Heart of the semiconductor industry

Innovation is at the heart of the semiconductor industry. New opportunities are explored by combining insights and competencies from partners with different backgrounds. Starting with network events and encounters, innovation takes place between partners, by international collaboration, and by making use of each partner’s strengths and resources.
