We believe our innovation will power the next wave of semiconductor devices ” says Jouko Lång, CTO and co-founder of Comptek Solutions, and main inventor of the technology. “We are grateful and thankful to Nature and Merck for having included our company among the ones to watch on this first edition of the Spinoff Prize”
