RESCHIP4EU: Why events like SEMICON Europa matter for Europe’s next generation of chip designers

At SEMICON Europa 2025 in Munich, RESCHIP4EU joined policymakers, industry leaders, and training providers to discuss one of Europe’s top priorities: building the workforce that will drive the next decade of chip design, microelectronics, and intelligent systems.

During the discussions, several priorities emerged:
• Expanding high-quality, specialized training in chip design and system architecture
• Improving coordination between universities, training providers, and industry labs
• Preparing students for real-world challenges through hands-on, industry-relevant learning
• Strengthening Europe’s semiconductor talent pipeline to stay competitive globally
• Supporting long-term workforce development, from foundational skills to advanced microelectronics expertise

These insights underline why initiatives like RESCHIP4EU – Reinforcing Skills in Chips Design for Europe are essential.

The program helps future engineers:
→ Learn cutting-edge chip design and embedded intelligence
→ Gain practical experience that mirrors industry needs
→ Contribute to Europe’s digital and industrial transformation
→ Become part of a coordinated effort to support Europe’s semiconductor strategy
