The Northeast Regional Defense Technology Hub (NORDTECH) is a regional coalition of public and private sector experts in and around New York State. NORDTECH is part of the U.S. Microelectronics Commons program.

NORDTECH’s five founding members who comprise the leadership team / governance committee of the hub include: NY CREATES, the University at Albany College of Nanotechnology, Science, and Engineering (CNSE), Cornell University, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), and IBM.

NORDTECH’s board is advised by diverse members of planned participants in NORDTECH’s response to the U.S. Department of Defense’s call for a Microelectronics Commons Hub, including small and medium semiconductor manufacturing companies, community colleges and universities, and major corporations who are service providers and leaders in semiconductor device design, fabrication, and production.
