Cambridge GaN Devices (CGD), the fabless, clean-tech semiconductor company that develops energy-efficient GaN-based power devices that make greener electronics possible, is taking part in two international events aimed at increasing the resilience of the semiconductor value chain and promoting information exchange and closer coordination between governments on semiconductors. On 26th September, Simon Stacey (CCO) at CGD is a panellist at the seventh meeting of the OECD Semiconductor Informal Exchange Network. Then later, CGD’s CEO, Giorgia Longobardi and other senior members of the company’s leadership team will participate in the stakeholder forum preceding the G7 Semiconductor Points of Contact Group,, attended by key government officials and industry executives.

andrea BricConi | Chief MARKETING Officer, CGD “We are excited and honoured that CGD, a relatively young company, has been recognised and invited to contribute to such important international discussions on the future of the semiconductor industry. GaN ICs are helping redefine the efficiency and power density of electronics systems, and it is important that governments, communities and business leaders are informed of the part that  electronics plays in every aspect of our lives today – from the cars that we drive to the food that we eat; to the design of our homes, workplaces and cities; and from systems that improve our health to the way we communicate. Literally, every sphere of life is today enabled by electronics systems, and every electronics system needs to be powered. GaN can do that more efficiently than previous silicon-based devices, and CGD enthusiastically welcomes the opportunity to be part of the discussion.”

Semiconductors have been brought into sharp focus for governments around the world, particularly after supply chain crunches of Covid-19. The OECD Semiconductor Informal Exchange Network was set up last year to help governments identify potential policy synergies for future collaboration. It’s activities include: mapping the semiconductor ecosystem; developing a semiconductor taxonomy and gathering semiconductor production data; and providing an inventory of policies supporting the semiconductor ecosystem
