About

Chilab-ITEM acts as a vital bridge between research labs and industry, specifically addressing the critical "Valley of Death" often encountered in microelectronics development. This phase, where promising innovations struggle to transition from laboratory prototypes to market-ready products, is fraught with challenges. Chilab-ITEM accelerates this transition by providing a comprehensive prototyping framework that leverages advanced technologies, ensuring seamless component integration and fostering crucial cross-sector collaboration. Hence the "ITEM" in our name: we are the connecting piece, just like an item in a puzzle, aligning flawlessly within the research and production workflow, effectively bridging the gap between concept and creation.

Chilab-ITEM contributes to and accelerates the maturation of research into market-ready products, driving innovation and economic growth, and ultimately translating scientific advancements in microelectronics into tangible societal benefits.

Mission

Accelerate the transition from basic research to technical and economic feasibility of the product by providing integration and prototyping solutions. Becoming the national and international reference point where microelectronic innovation is transformed into concrete solutions.

Vision

Chilab-ITEM looks in the same direction as our partners but apply science and technological rigor to optimize materials and processes dedicated to microelectronics.

Chilab-ITEM combines the knowledge acquired in over 20 years of experience in clean rooms and the energy of young graduates who have a passion for technology.

The lab is an accelerator in the field of materials and processes for microelectronics, aiming to be at the forefront of technological change in chiplet integration.
