Between September 7–9, Smoltek’s CTO, Farzan Ghavanini, participated in the Business Sweden semiconductor delegation to Japan, meeting with leading companies and organizations across the Japanese semiconductor ecosystem.
A key focus of the visit was to present Smoltek’s ultra-thin capacitor technology, CNF-MIM, and discuss potential applications and collaboration opportunities directly with Japanese semiconductor companies. The program included company visits, presentations, matchmaking meetings and networking in Tokyo and Hokkaido.
“The visit gave us the opportunity to present Smoltek’s ultra-thin capacitor technology directly to several Japanese semiconductor companies and establish valuable new contacts. We are now continuing these discussions, with the ambition that some of these relationships can develop into broader and long-term partnerships”.
Farzan Ghavanini, CTO at Smoltek
