Susana Bonnetier
FAMES Pilot Line Open Access Chairperson, CEA-Leti
Bio:
Susana Bonnetier is a member of the FAMES Pilot Line management team and leads the Open Access effort with the goal of making « European-grown » advanced semiconductor technologies readily accessible to industry and academia.
An MIT engineer with a background in industry and research in the USA and France, Susana puts all her energy into transferring technological innovation to companies.
Born in Venezuela, Susana spent 9 years in the USA, where she completed her higher education and worked for General Electric Aircraft Engines, designing and building aircraft engines.
In 1991, Susana joined Saint-Gobain in France, first in the Industrial Strategy and Planning department working with 20 manufacturing plants to streamline and modernize their operations, and then at Saint-Gobain Cristaux et Détecteurs as Product and Industrial Market Manager, significantly increasing the profitability of a scintillation detectors product line.
In 2001, she moved to Grenoble, “the land of nano and micro technologies”, and reoriented her career towards the semiconductor industry. She joined Freescale as R&D Engineer and contributed to the successful development of the 65nm and 45nm CMOS technology nodes by the Crolles 2 Alliance.
In 2007, Susana joined CEA-Leti, first as head of a joint laboratory between Leti and a major French optics company, and later as Leti’s Carnot program manager, piloting a 14M€ R&D budget within Leti’s Scientific Directorate. During that time, she was VP of the Carnot Network and a member of its board of directors.
Susana brings a solid industrial and R&D experience to the FAMES Pilot Line project and the aim of contributing to the construction, in concert with the FAMES European Partners and the complementary Chips Act Pilot Lines, of a pan-European semiconductor ecosystem with the best Europe has to offer in microelectronics technologies.

Coby Hanoch
CEO, Weebit Nano
Bio :
Coby is the CEO of Weebit Nano. Coby has nearly 45 years’ experience in the semiconductor and related industries, including engineering, engineering management, sales and executive roles. He was previously CEO at PacketLight Networks, and held VP Worldwide Sales roles at both Verisity and Jasper Design Automation. Coby also set up his own consulting company, EDAcon Partners, helping startups define their corporate strategies, build their worldwide sales channels and raise capital. Coby holds a Bachelor of Science in Systems Design from Technion – Israel Institute of Technology.
Abstract :
There is an ever-increasing need for higher performance computing and storage, especially with the explosive growth of AI applications. This comes at a time when embedded flash is hitting a scaling wall at advanced process geometries. New resistance-based technologies are emerging to fill the need for alternative Non-Volatile Memories (NVMs). We’ll discuss which NVM technology is best equipped for future application needs, what is needed to develop such a technology, and how collaborations are speeding development to intercept the growing market demand for a new NVM.
Olivier Faynot

Olivier Faynot
EVP, Head of Silicon Component Division, CEA-Leti
Bio :
Olivier Faynot received the M.Sc and Ph.D. degrees from the Institut National Polytechnique de Grenoble, France in 1991 and 1995, respectively. His doctoral research was related to the characterization and modeling of deep submicron Fully Depleted SOI devices fabricated on ultrathin SIMOX wafers.
He joined CEA (CEA-Grenoble, France) in 1995, working on Partially Depleted and Fully Depleted SOI technologies development in the frame of Industrial Partnerships.
From 2008 to 2017, he managed various teams focussed on advanced CMOS, memories and 3D technology integration and was assigned on manufacturing sites to implement FDSOI technologies.
During that period, he was engaged in the transfer to production of 28nm and 22nm FDSOI technologies with industrial partners. Those technologies are now available in production.
From 2017 to 2019, he managed the Patterning department at CEA-LETI, within the Silicon Technology division.
Since 2019, he is managing the whole Silicon Component division at CEA-LETI.
He is author and co-author of more than 400 scientific publications in journals and international conferences, and was successively in the committees of the main international Semiconductors conferences like International Electron Device Meeting (IEDM), the symposium on VLSI Technology, the IEEE International SOI conference, the EUROSOI network, the Solid State Device and Materials (SSDM) conference and the International S3S conference.
He received the ‘Général Férié’ award in 2012 and the ‘Electron d’Or’ award with CEA-Leti, ST Microelectronics and SOITEC in 2017.
He has been elected as an IEEE Fellow in 2024 for leadership in CMOS technology development.
