Who we are

As the UK’s authority on compound semiconductor applications and commercialisation, we work with start-ups, SMEs, large organisations and academia to de-risk commercialisation, eliminate barriers to market and accelerate compound semiconductor technologies. 

As a not-for-profit research and technology organisation, funded by Innovate UK, we’re a trusted neutral convener in a range of industry sectors, focused on two key markets: Net Zero and Future Telecoms.  

Our state-of-the-art facilities are home to a world-leading team of experts with significant know-how, experience and track records in developing and commercialising compound semiconductor technologies and applications. 

As we grow the contribution of compound semiconductor technologies to the UK economy, we also work hard to inspire, train and develop the next generation of scientists and engineers who will drive the compound semiconductor technologies of the future.
