CSA Catapult will also establish a presence in the North East, where there is a cluster of companies working on telecoms, satellite communications and defence technologies. Based at NETPark in Sedgefield, County Durham, CSA Catapult North East will work with companies in the area as a neutral convener. It will facilitate market adoption of new compound semiconductor-based technologies, and build supply chains in telecoms, satellite communications and defence.
CSA Catapult North East will offer direct digital access to the prototyping capabilities in Newport, reducing the time and cost to produce advanced semiconductor modules to serve these markets.
CSA Catapult has entered into a partnership agreement to deliver a co-ordinated programme with the Satellite Applications Catapult to help support the cluster’s ambitions for growth.
CSA Catapult will have a presence at the Space Enterprise Lab and will work closely with Satellite Applications Catapult.
