Do you want to lead the endeavors to fertilize the growth layer of commercial Danish chips development?
We are seeking a dedicated person to head the new EU and government funded Danish Chips Competence Center.
In recent years a strong focus on attracting microchips competences and activities to Europe has led to the European Chips Act with the goal to at least double chip fabrication in Europe by 2030. Combined National and EU funding has enabled the establishment of new national Chips Competence Centers in most EU member states.
The Danish National Chip Competence Center is anchored and will have its headquarters at the Technical University of Denmark, DTU.
In the coming 4 years, DKCCC headed by a consortium consisting of DTU, Aarhus University (AU), Copenhagen University (KU), Danish Fundamental Metrology (DFM) and Danish Industry (DI) will lay the foundation for accelerating the commercial chips development in Denmark by supporting the Danish chips industry with easy access to services, research-based knowledge and state of the art facilities.
The mission of the DKCCC is to
Lower the threshold for Danish and EU-based SMEs and start-ups to design and fabricate semiconductor chips in general and quantum chips in particular. C3-DK will provide training, tools and resources to support innovations and sustained business development within these areas of advanced chip technology.
The partners of the consortium ensure that the Chips Competence Center will function as the main hub for SMEs and start-ups in the Danish chip industry and provide access to expertise, collaboration and European networks, initiatives and funding programs. With the Danish competence center, the Danish chip industry will have the opportunity to develop, expand and spread its business areas and opportunities, as well as access a large network of European chip companies.
The establishment of the Chips Competence Centers follows the ongoing growing activities and increasing interest in e.g. Quantum technology and quantum chips - clearly manifested through the EU Quantum Flagship, the recently established NATO Quantum Center located in Copenhagen (DIANAQ) as well as the National Strategy for Quantum Technology in Denmark and a growing quantum eco-system with currently more than 1 bn€ investments in Denmark.
With the Chips Competence Center, we now have the opportunity support chips design and fabrication and provide a one-entrance access point for the industry to accelerate business development as well as facilitate the establishment of new start-up companies in the field of microchips.
Therefore, we are seeking a strong and experienced profile to lead and coordinate the work of the Chips Competence Center to take the Danish Chips industry to the next level.
We are looking for a Head of Danish Chips Competence Center with excellent networking, coordination and communication skills, an in-depth understanding of the Danish and International Chips Industry as well as a proven track record of leadership and project management in the Deep Tech Industry.

- Represent the Center and facilitate visits from national and international delegations.
- Administer the Center’s funding from EU and Danish Government.
