Aeluma, Inc. (NASDAQ: ALMU), a semiconductor company specializing in high-performance, scalable technologies for mobile, AI, defense and aerospace, robotics, automotive, AR/VR, and quantum computing, today announced that it has joined the Midwest Microelectronics Consortium (MMEC), a leading hub of microelectronics innovation and technology transition for the Department of Defense (DoD) Microelectronics Commons Program.
“Aeluma was a founding affiliate member of the California DREAMS Hub, and now expands its industry presence with the MMEC Hub membership,” said Jonathan Klamkin, Ph.D., Founder and CEO of Aeluma. “Our scalable semiconductor photonics manufacturing platform addresses the needs in multiple key DoD areas including AI Hardware, Electronic Warfare, Quantum, and Infrared Sensors. Building on our momentum with U.S. Government agency partners, we look forward to working with other MMEC members to accelerate deployment of disruptive technology at the forefront of American innovation.”
The MMEC is one of the Hubs that form the Microelectronics Commons, which is a national network of prototyping and innovation hubs aimed at transitioning critical technologies from laboratories to domestic microelectronics manufacturers. These themes are synergistic with Aeluma’s core principles, to address key technology challenges and enhance the U.S. semiconductor manufacturing ecosystem.
