	Soitec is the world leader in generating and manufacturing revolutionary semiconductor materials for electronic and energy industries. As an industrial company, we have built our reputation developing and manufacturing our flagship material, SOI (Silicon-on-Insulator).

	&nbsp;

	Jean-Michel Lamure and Andre-Jacques Auberton-Herve founded Soitec in 1992 to develop and commercialize the revolutionary Smart Cut &ldquo;atomic scalpel&rdquo; technology.

	&nbsp;

	Since then, the company has continued to innovate and grow. Today we are leading technological advances that will shape the performance of tomorrow&rsquo;s products on markets like computing, telecommunications, automotive electronics, and lighting.

	&nbsp;

	Our Concentrix technology has also enabled us to become a global leader in the manufacture of systems used by the concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) solar energy industry.
