Hi Luke I've got an idea... Although our team is by now rather dominated by software developers, we still have actual engineers in the team :-) Maybe we should step the whole thing up a notch and propose a project for develeping actual equipment they can use in clean rooms. You mentioned bonding... we could however finally start get hands on with the maskless stepper aligner project, or we could use those many already existing open source designs for magnetron sputtering machines and manufacture something which can be produced in mass. If they give us the cash for getting started, like the parts for the prototyping and the equipment, I'll gladly turn that into a legitimate business.
Cheers -lev

i just received word from NLnet that there's a strategic meeting to discuss the impact of NGI / NLnet Grants and to plan ahead for potential future EU Grants. with EUR 120 billion earmarked for Digital Sovereignty in Europe, even ideas such as creating 3D Printed ASIC Packaging and bonding wire equipment are the sorts of things that could - and should - be raised.
