"AIXTRON's technology is a flagship for North Rhine-Westphalia as a place
to do business"
NRW's Economics Minister Garrelt Duin visits AIXTRON's headquarters and
finds out more about trailblazing semiconductor technologies
Herzogenrath/Germany, January 13, 2017 - Garrelt Duin, North Rhine
Westphalia's Minister for Economic Affairs, Energy, Industry, SMEs and
Trade, Ulla Schmidt, Vice-President of the German Bundestag, Christoph von
den Driesch, Mayor of Herzogenrath, and Eva-Maria Voigt-Küppers and Karl
Schultheis, both members of the NRW State Parliament, visited the
headquarters of AIXTRON SE (FSE: AIXA), one of the world's leading
manufacturers of deposition systems for the semiconductor industry, in
Herzogenrath near Aachen on Friday.
In talks with the Executive Board and the Works Council, the Minister
informed himself about the company's current situation and its trailblazing
semiconductor production technologies, such as MOCVD (Metal Organic Vapor
Phase Deposition). These enable high-performance components to be
manufactured for future and existing next-generation applications in
entertainment electronics, e-mobility, data communications, and
telecommunications. During their tour of the company, the politicians
inspected the award-winning MOCVD system AIX G5+ C and the demonstration
system for manufacturing organic LEDs. These play a key role in the
production of OLED televisions, displays and new lighting solutions.
Minister Duin was impressed by AIXTRON's technology and its approach to
research and development. "North Rhine-Westphalia can be proud to be home
to this key technology player. It is crucial for NRW and the Aachen region
that companies with this degree of innovation should have the best possible
conditions in which to develop. We will therefore uphold our efforts to
sustainably boost NRW as a place to do business and safeguard our growth,
jobs, and prosperity for the future as well."
Martin Goetzeler, CEO of AIXTRON SE, welcomed the Minister's visit: "Our
technology portfolio is facilitating the development of numerous future
applications in electro-mobility, energy management, and data
communications. We aim to develop these technologies further in future as
well. To support the company's sustainable success, close liaison with
political decision makers on all levels is indispensable, as is their
backing for us."
"We were delighted to meet Minister Duin and his colleagues on federal,
state, and municipal levels today, to provide them with some insights into
our forward-looking technologies, and enable them to form their own
impression of our systems", commented Dr. Bernd Schulte, Executive Board
member and Chief Operating Officer at AIXTRON SE.
