Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation shows commitment to the semiconductor industry

aveni S.A., a leading provider of metallization technologies for advanced damascene and 3D memory devices, has secured an investment in Series B financing from Diamond Edge Ventures (DEV) and has entered into a Joint Development Agreement (JDA) with Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation (MCC), an operating company of the Mitsubishi Chemical Holdings Corporation (MCHC) to develop disruptive 3D memory technology.

The partnership will enable the France-based start-up to further develop disruptive metallization technologies for the 3D memory industry; it also reflects MCHC’s commitment to expanding its core offerings in the electronic materials sector.

“This new round of funding and strategic partnership with MCC gives aveni the resources and leverage we need to secure a leadership position in the 3D memory market,” said Bruno Morel, Chief Executive Officer of aveni, S.A. “This new strategic partnership is a critical factor in enabling us to fully target and ultimately capture this growing market.”

“It is rare to have the opportunity to invest in and support a semiconductor materials company at aveni’s advanced stage of development,” said Patrick Suel, President of Diamond Edge Ventures. “MCC and aveni are now well positioned to serve an extremely demanding market with the most advanced materials, at scale.”

“In April 2020, MCC established MC Chemical Solutions for Semiconductor (MCSS) as a new organization,” said Johei Takimoto, Chief Operating Officer of the Information, Electronics & Display business domain of MCC. “MCSS will aggressively pursue a growth strategy, and this partnership reflects our commitment to the semiconductor industry. With the advanced development capability of aveni and our qualified manufacturing technology, we can bring new solutions to the industry.”
