Become an Inno.Wafer and benefit from a close cooperation
Inno.Wafer – Infineon’s startup cooperation program
Innovation and partnerships are part of Infineon‘s DNA. We walk the talk - together with startups we drive tomorrow‘s solutions.
Become part of our startup cooperation program Inno.Wafer: The wafer is the symbol for the semiconductor industry. However, the innovations we are looking for go far beyond pure semiconductor technology. They are about the applications that you can build with our products, the software that complements them or the process efficiency that we can gain as a global corporation.
Join the Inno.Wafer now and have Infineon as your customer, supplier or business partner on your side!
Independently and in addition to a concrete cooperation we offer mentorships to interested startups active in hardware or embedded systems (see more info on mentorships below)
