About
Inside

“New methodologies rely on new and better algorithms and formalisms that are often initially developed in academia and then have to be applied in real life. What INSIDE offers is the combination of university research, knowledge institutes like ours and industry itself, and this virtuous circle continuously brings the field further."

Wouter Leibbrandt

Science and operations director at TNO

INSIDE is the Industry Association that strives for a leading position of Europe in Intelligent Digital Systems and their applications. The Association is a membership organisation for the European R&I actors with more than 265 members from 28 European and associated countries, spanning the entire Electronic and Systems value chain, from semiconductors to applications.

Our commitment lies in supporting both industry and academia to secure funding that drives the creation of innovative, competitive, reliable, and sustainable solutions for European industry and key application sectors.

Aligned with the goals of the CHIPS Act, INSIDE plays a pivotal role in strengthening Europe’s semiconductor supply chain, fostering technological innovation, and enhancing Europe’s sovereignty in critical technologies. Our multidisciplinary membership base creates a robust network for exchanging technological ideas, collaboratively building strategic R&I agendas, facilitating cross-domain fertilization, and spearheading large-scale innovation initiatives.

Through our concerted efforts, INSIDE significantly contributes to maintaining and enhancing Europe’s competitive edge in the global market. We have a proven track record of success, exemplified by numerous high-impact projects and initiatives that have emerged from our collaborative environment.

Join us in our mission to drive Europe’s technological advancement and secure its leadership in the intelligent digital systems landscape. Together, we can achieve groundbreaking innovations and bolster Europe’s position on the global stage.

By being involved you help shape the future. For STMicroelectronics we have ‘inside’ information that can be put to good use for future business opportunities.”

The Inside
vision

What’s driving the Inside Industry Association? That mankind should benefit from a major evolution in our society, whereby our world is widely supported by Intelligent Digital Systems and System(s) of Systems.

A world in which all systems, machines and objects become smart, to exploit digital information and services around them, through communication with the environment and with people, and where possible managing their resources autonomously.
