Chairman Message

On the 30th anniversary of the Electronics Research Institute ( E R I ) , Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, we are proud to sponsor this supplement, and present it to the international readers and researchers all over the world. This is a new and unique opportunity for ERI to provide a broad description of its research , scientific platforms , collaborative innovation, international cooperation, talent, achievements, ongoing projects, and future visions to the global research community. The ERI is transferring to new premises that include new laboratories, hosting technological incubators, small and medium enterprises in the field of electronics industry, and the halls dedicated to hosting international conferences, workshops, and specialized seminars. ERI introduced Science and Technology Park for Electronics Research and Industry “ STPERI ”. It is located on an area of fifty - five thousand square meters of buildings ( 55000 m² ) in front of Cairo international airport in East Cairo. The STPERI is expected to help in the increase of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP ) in the Egyptian electronics industry. STPERI will establish a successful business model consisting of technology R&D, incubation ( TARIEIC incubator ) , venture capital , and an industrial cluster(DLMEI) to support the rapid development of innovative high-tech enterprises. STPERI will also include a clean room fabrication facility, which will be established on an area of one thousand and eight hundred square meters (1800 m²). This enables ERI to engage in the development and manufacturing of Micro electro mechanical( MEMS) as well as intelligent sensors in the micro and nanotechnology to be unique facility at the area of Arab and African region. ERI is being established an industry 4.0 training center including fields of cloud computing, big data, artificial intelligence, natural language processing, robotics, nanotechnology, IoT, smart cities and self-control vehicles. The innovation center “TARIEIC” was established by the ERI with the support of the Egyptian Academy of Scientific Research and Technology “www.tarieic.sci.eg”. TARIEIC aims to work in new fields as well as in governmental urgent national fields such as: the new and renewable energy, smart sensors, and the environment and food challenges. TARIEIC also aims to solve some existing industrial problems and challenges by inviting the owners of innovations and emerging projects in the field of electronics to obtain technical and financial support. DLMEI, “The National Alliance to Deepen Local Manufacturing in Electronics industry” contributes and develops production in the national industrial sector through establishing strong links among research centers, universities, industrial institutions, NGOs, small and medium enterprises “www.dlmei.sci.eg”. I express appreciation to my colleagues whose efforts made all this possible. We encourage future collaboration between ERI-STPERI and all the entities around the world for the benefit of all of international collaboration for Electronics Research Development.
