International collaboration EU and Japan on semiconductors

Résumé

This call invites collaborative proposals between EU and Japanese consortia to develop chiplet ecosystems for AI and advanced semiconductor process technologies at nodes beyond 2nm. The call operates under the Chips Joint Undertaking and closes on 8 December 2026.

This call is a near-perfect topical match for Acme Corporation, directly targeting chiplet ecosystems for AI and advanced semiconductor process nodes beyond 2nm — both core to Acme's semiconductor and AI domain. Eligibility requires consortium participation, which Acme must plan for by identifying Japanese partner consortia and European co-applicants. The EU geography aligns with Acme's target regions, and the Chips Joint Undertaking is one of the most strategically significant European deep-tech funding instruments for semiconductors. The deadline of December 8, 2026 is over 14 months away, giving ample preparation time but requiring early engagement with potential Japanese partners. Acme should begin consortium-building and pre-proposal discussions now to secure a strong position in this competitive, high-profile call.

Scores détaillés

PURSUE — this call is a direct hit on Acme's semiconductor and AI priorities with an EU-Japan collaboration framework that aligns perfectly with their strategic focus; begin consortium formation and Japanese partner identification immediately given the competitive nature of Chips JU calls.
