About our work
A connected route from device to deployment
The UK is recognised globally for semiconductor research and device design, but many businesses still rely on overseas facilities to package and scale new technologies. NMIS is helping bring that capability closer to home.
Businesses can develop, package, test and qualify power electronic technologies through NMIS's engineering expertise and Europe's first open-access advanced packaging capability for power electronics.
Working alongside the University of Strathclyde, industry, academic and national partners, we help shorten development times and bring new technologies closer to market.
How we can help
Supporting every stage of development
From early-stage development and advanced packaging to testing and qualification, NMIS supports every stage of today's power electronics journey. We're also building the semiconductor capabilities that will support tomorrow's technologies.

Developing technologies ready for the next stage
Whether you're developing a new power electronic device or refining an existing technology, NMIS helps businesses overcome engineering challenges and prepare technologies for testing, qualification and commercial deployment.
Engineering expertise from day one
Work alongside experienced engineers to solve technical challenges, develop innovative manufacturing processes and build confidence in a collaborative, lower-risk environment.
Develop manufacturing-ready processes
Develop and validate manufacturing and packaging processes that improve performance, reliability and readiness for qualification and commercial deployment.
Bringing advanced packaging closer to home
For many businesses, advanced packaging means relying on overseas facilities, creating long lead times and slowing development.
NMIS is changing that with Europe's first open-access advanced packaging capability for power electronics, giving businesses access to industry-standard facilities, advanced equipment and engineering expertise here in the UK.
Europe's first open-access capability
Access an industry-standard cleanroom, advanced packaging scale-up capability and work alongside NMIS engineers to explore new technologies, test new ideas and validate next-generation power electronic technologies.
From months to days
Reduce packaging lead times from months to days, helping accelerate development, shorten time to market and reduce reliance on overseas packaging capability.
Building confidence before deployment
Before progressing to qualification or commercial deployment, businesses need evidence that their technologies are ready. NMIS combines specialist facilities and engineering expertise to test, inspect and qualify power electronic technologies, helping inform engineering decisions and support product qualification.
Validate performance
Evaluate electrical, mechanical and environmental performance to understand how technologies behave under real-world operating conditions.
Inspect and qualify
Assess package integrity using advanced inspection and qualification techniques to identify defects and generate the evidence needed to support product qualification.
Building tomorrow's semiconductor capability
Today's capability focuses on advanced packaging for power electronics. Future investment will expand NMIS' capability into additional semiconductor technologies, strengthening the UK's manufacturing capability and creating new opportunities across energy, communications, aerospace and defence.
Beyond power electronics
Future capability will support a broader range of semiconductor technologies, including photonics and CMOS devices, enabling new applications across high-value manufacturing sectors.
A connected innovation ecosystem
Working with the University of Strathclyde and national partners, we're building a connected semiconductor ecosystem that supports the journey from chip to megawatt, linking advanced packaging with complementary research, subsystem development and high-power testing.
