Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson visited NanoLund for a tour of the nano lab, discussions on how to make science, technology, engineering, and maths education more popular, to learn more about semiconductors and the technology behind them.
Lund Nano Lab had a prominent visit from Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson and his entourage – and got to talk about semiconductors, nanoscience, nanotechnology, and the importance of keeping the competence growing, academia, and industry hand in hand.
“This shows that semiconductors and chips are high on the agenda, also in Sweden, and it felt like the prime minister was very interested,” said Lars-Erik Wernersson who presented an outline for a national agenda for semiconductors.
Lund University, Chalmers University of Technology, and KTH Royal Institute of Technology – three universities that account for the majority of Swedish education and research in the field of semiconductors – are now joining forces to strengthen the supply of skills and access to research infrastructure in the country.
