This year’s finalists and Dr. Bian have made significant contributions to GF and their creativity and ingenuity helps GF push the boundaries of what is possible.” “I am deeply proud to be the first GFX Prize winner,” said Dr. Bian. “Recognizing the work of GF inventors through Patent Week is important since our inventions drive GF innovation and its technology roadmap. Through Patent Week and beyond, GF encourages its global employees to be truly innovative and supports inventors to pursue patenting.” Launched in 2023, as a part of GF Patent Week, the GFX Prize program supports a company-wide culture of inventorship and innovation by providing employees with the resources and mentorship needed to navigate the patenting process. GF’s inventors play a critical role in driving the company’s technology roadmap and advancing platform innovation for the industry and its customers. Of more than 500 inventions submitted in 2022, only the top five nominees were chosen as the most exceptional inventions. In addition to the GFX Prize, GF Patent Week recognizes a yearly Master Inventor class as well as a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) in Inventorship Champion. This year, six new Master Inventors from the U.S., India, and Europe were recognized by GF. As the highest honor of inventorship at GF, the title of Master Inventor is reserved for employees with at least 20 issued U.S. patents and who have a demonstrated track record of technical accomplishments and intellectual property (IP) asset creation. Now in its sixth year, the program is an elite platform that enhances prolific inventors’ abilities to lead and inspire IP asset creation for the company. To support an inclusive inventing culture, GF recognized Laura Silverstein, an integration engineer based at the company’s facility in Burlington, Vermont, as its DEI in Inventorship Champion. The recipient of this award is nominated for their hard work in creating a new and more diverse generation of inventors.

GlobalFoundries Mitarbeitende spenden mehr als 40.000 Euro für Ukrainehilfe an arche noVa e.V. March 21, 2023 Unternehmen verdreifacht Spenden durch internes Spendenprogramm GlobalGives Dresden, 21. März 2023. Rund ein Jahr nach dem Beginn des russischen Angriffs auf die Ukraine ziehen der Dresdner Chiphersteller GlobalFoundries (GF) und die Dresdner Hilfsorganisation arche noVa e.V. Bilanz zu gemeinsamen Spendenprojekten. Seit März 2022 haben das Unternehmen und seine Mitarbeitenden mehr als 40.000 Euro an arche noVa zugunsten humanitärer Projekte in der Ukraine gespendet. Neben einer Direktspende von 5.000 Euro verdreifachte GF die Spenden seiner Mitarbeitenden über das firmeninterne Spendenprogramm GlobalGives. “Unsere Kolleginnen und Kollegen hatten vom ersten Tag des Krieges an ein starkes Bedürfnis zu helfen. Als internationales Team aus 45 Nationen gibt es vielfältige persönliche Beziehungen und großes privates Engagement. Viele Familien haben Geflüchtete aufgenommen und neben Geld auch Alltagsausstattung gespendet”, erklärt Unternehmenssprecherin Karin Raths. “Die hohe Spendensumme von über 40.000 Euro an unseren langjährigen Projektpartner arche noVa hat auch uns sehr positiv überrascht. Auf Wunsch unserer Mitarbeitenden werden wir das Spendenprogramm in dieser Form auch 2023 weiterführen!” „Wir sind sehr beeindruckt von dem Engagement des GlobalFoundries-Teams. Der hohe Spendenbetrag ist ein großer Vertrauensbeweis für die seit Jahren anhaltende partnerschaftliche Zusammenarbeit und zeigt uns, was möglich ist, wenn soziale Verantwortung konsequent gelebt wird“, betont Mathias Anderson, Geschäftsführer von arche noVa. „Das Spendenprogramm GlobalGives ermöglicht uns seit 2020, von Krisen und Konflikten betroffene Menschen mit humanitärer Hilfe zu erreichen. Im Falle der Ukraine bedeutet dies etwa die Verteilung von lebenswichtigen Hilfsgütern wie Wasser, Lebensmittel, Hygienekits oder auch Öfen und Brennstoffen gegen die winterliche Kälte. Angesichts der besonders in der Ostukraine weiterhin prekären humanitären Lage ist diese Solidarität sehr wichtig.“ GF engagiert sich weltweit seit vielen Jahren im Umfeld seiner Standorte. Mitarbeitende können Vereine und Organisationen in die Spendendatenbank GlobalGives eintragen. Die Spenden an diese Empfänger werden von GF verdoppelt. GF-Mitarbeitende können auch ihren ehrenamtlichen Einsatz in Vereinen eintragen. Im vergangenen Jahr spendeten Mitarbeitende des Dresdner GF-Standorts für regionale Projekte so mehr als 200.000 Euro. Dazu kamen fast 1.000 Stunden Freiwilligenarbeit für 118 Organisationen in Sachsen. Aktuell unterstützt GlobalFoundries auch humanitäre Projekte für die Opfer des Erdbebens in der türkisch-syrischen Grenzregion über das Bündnis Aktion Deutschland hilft, in dem auch arche noVa aktiv ist.

Amkor Technology and GlobalFoundries to Provide At-scale Semiconductor Test and Assembly Services in Europe February 16, 2023 Partnership expands European and transatlantic semiconductor supply chain TEMPE, Ariz. and DRESDEN, Germany, February 16, 2023 — Amkor Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: AMKR), a leading provider of semiconductor packaging and test services, and GlobalFoundries (Nasdaq: GFS) (GF), a global leader in feature-rich semiconductor manufacturing, announced today that the two companies have formed a strategic partnership. This new partnership will enable a comprehensive EU/US supply chain from semiconductor wafer production at GF to OSAT* services at Amkor’s site in Porto, Portugal. GF plans to transfer its 300mm Bump and Sort lines from its Dresden site to Amkor’s Porto operations to establish the first at-scale back-end facility in Europe. GF will maintain ownership of its transferred tools, processes, and IP in Porto. Both partners also plan to collaborate on future development efforts in Portugal. Today, Amkor is the only high-volume, Tier 1 OSAT in Europe, and GF Dresden is Europe’s largest and most advanced semiconductor manufacturing services company. This partnership enables the first semiconductor manufacturing (foundry) through advanced packaging semiconductor supply chain outside of Asia, creating more European supply chain autonomy for key end markets including automotive. “This strategic partnership with GF will enhance the advanced semiconductor packaging supply chain in Europe and ramp up competitive capacity to complement what is available in Asia,” said Kevin Engel, Amkor’s Executive Vice President, Business Units. “Amkor’s collaboration with GF enables us to significantly expand manufacturing scale and bring to market additional assembly and test capability to support our European and global customers.” “GF remains committed to growing our European manufacturing ecosystem to support local and global customers, especially in the Automotive markets. This partnership with Amkor in Portugal will provide much needed services within the EU and expand the US-European semiconductor supply chain,” said Mike Hogan, GlobalFoundries Chief Business Officer. At this pivotal time in the semiconductor industry, manufacturers and suppliers alike are confronted with political, industrial, technological, and financial disruptions. Amkor’s global support and local presence combined with GF’s tools and processes will enable the Porto site to help the European Union pursue its goals of ensuring supply chain stability and delivering the next-generation automotive and other critical chip solutions. * Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test vendors provide third-party IC-packaging and test services.
