The quote alongside it is from Caroline O'Brien, CEO of Kubos Semiconductors, and reads: “Bringing Kubos Semiconductors closer to our partners and becoming part of the South Wales Compound Semiconductor Cluster is an important next step on our journey. This office location in sbarc|spark affords us access to a wealth of academic expertise and advanced research facilities, which will undoubtedly lead to more groundbreaking innovations in GaN technologies, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in semiconductor performance and efficiency.”
