Optical chip factory opened in Germany
The last section of Osram’s new semiconductor plant has been opened in Regensburg, Germany, by Martin Goetzeler, Osram CEO, Dr Rüdiger Müller, CEO of Osram Opto Semiconductors and Regensburg Mayor Hans Schaidinger.
“Since the start of construction seven years ago, we have invested hundreds of millions of euros. In this period the number of employees has increased by approximately 500 to 1500,” said Rüdiger Müller.
This growth has boosted capacity by almost 50%, necessitating the expansion of the Osram Opto Semiconductors facility in Regensburg to about 55,000 square metres.
