Project description
A European breakthrough in semiconductor memory
The semiconductor industry is worth hundreds of billions of euros, with a significant market for semiconductor memories. Despite this, Europe lacks its own memory manufacturers, missing out on this lucrative market. This absence leads to a heavy reliance on overseas suppliers, posing economic and strategic risks. The EIC-funded Fe-NVRAM project aims to address these issues by creating innovative memory solutions, establishing Europe as a key player in the memory market. Fe-NVRAM's technology offers non-volatile data storage, reduces energy consumption in data centres, and doubles battery life for devices. Fe-NVRAM seeks to become the first major EU memory company, creating jobs and fostering a greener semiconductor industry.
Objective
The semiconductor industry is a 600B$ industry. The share of semiconductor memories is 150B$. But there are no memory manufacturers in Europe. So, the EU is missing out on a huge share of the semiconductor market!
FMC will change that by creating fundamentally new memories based on our disruptive material innovation, we will become a major memory player from Europe, reducing the EUs critical dependence on overseas suppliers, creating jobs, and making semiconductors greener.
Our memory is as fast and low cost as DRAM, while providing non-volatile data storage.
Our memory products will significantly reduce the energy consumption of data centers, enable instant-on capabilities, and double the battery life of smartphones, PCs, and IoT devices. In addition, non-volatile working memory immediately protects against data loss due to power outages.
Our vision is to disrupt the memory industry and become the first EU memory company, set up production facilities in Europe to become the next EIC unicorn.

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
