Description of Annual Action at Yole Développement 

     - Participation: bring together several companies (equipment and material supplier, device manufacturers …) interested to analyze a
       specific topic (MEMS applications, microreaction technologies, wafer level packaging, power devices, photovoltaic solar cells, palm
       power …)

     - Advantage: share the cost between different organizations

     - Objectives: make a global and in-depth description of this area and provide specific answers to the participants of this action:

   1. General & global analysis common to each partner (in-depth description & analysis of these areas with quantitative evaluation 
       of the market)

   2. Custom work of qualitative analysis (specific questions define by each partner, quantitative analysis including technology,
       products, strategy...)

     - Duration: 6 months

     Annual Action objectives

     1. General objectives (common to each company):

   • Analyze the industrial value chain of this fields: material suppliers, service providers, components manufacturers, capital
     equipment manufacturers …

   • Describe the device markets using the studied technology, per application

   • Analyze and describe the technologies for the manufacturing of components using the studied technology (bottlenecks,
   achievements, process steps, roadmaps …)

   • Description of major companies and research labs involved worldwide in this field

      2. Custom work (specific for each company):

   • Describe the equipment, material, component and application markets for the period 2006-2010 for specific field

   • Answer specific marketing,technology and strategic questions linked to the development of the business of the involved company
