Assessing the value of the latest technology,
Towards a future of innovation

Since Macnica 's founding in 1972, we have identified valuable semiconductor products from around the world, added unique technological value, and provided them to our customers. Currently, with our original technology brand "Mpression," we leverage the technological capabilities we have cultivated and our globally expanding network to work together with our customers and partners to plan and develop solutions to solve problems and create new value. We are starting a challenge towards this goal.

+α value and technology to accelerate customer's design development

"Mpression" is a coined word that combines the "M" in "Macnica" and "Impression." It embodies our desire to create ``deep value that leaves a lasting impression on people'' and ``additional value that has never existed before''.

In today's fast-paced and competitive world, every company is required to innovate. In addition, IC (semiconductor integrated circuit) and IT technology will play a major role. In recent years, electronic devices have become more sophisticated and complex, and manufacturers and other development sites are boldly working to catch up on new functions and technologies, develop products in a short period of time, and maintain quality.

"Mpression" provides a wide range of system-level solutions, board products, software, PoC (hypothesis verification), etc. packed with Macnica 's extensive knowledge and experience. This shortens the development period for electronic devices, greatly contributing to increasing customer value, improving productivity, and reducing costs.

Focusing on the IoT field, collaboration with other industries and
Taking on the challenge of open innovation

At Mpression, we are also focusing on new businesses through open innovation and collaboration with manufacturers in other industries with which we have had little contact until now. The semiconductor and network technologies that Macnica has been involved in for many years have now become indispensable in every field of society. In recent years, an increasing number of companies are considering the use of electronics and IoT to improve productivity, and the fields in which "Mpression" can be useful are further expanding.

Examples include wearable terminals that combine conductive fiber cloth and semiconductors, electronic blocks for education, and visualization of the usage status of toilets and parking lots. Furthermore, we are taking on the challenge of creating new value while working side by side with customers in a variety of previously unimagined fields, such as construction, medicine, and agriculture.

We have also expanded on our previous efforts, including ``Mpression,'' exploring new ways to use semiconductors from the idea stage, and embarking on a path to make proposals to a wide range of customers. We want to be a good advisor to our customers as they use IC and IT to solve management issues and promote innovation. That is Macnica 's wish.

Focus on new trends in technology.
"Future technology" pioneered with makers

Macnica focuses on ventures and start-up companies to develop new technologies that are not yet known. It then arranges them in a way that meets the needs of manufacturers and other companies, and popularizes them in the world. A huge amount of new technologies and information is born every day. We believe that it is the mission of "Mpression" to collect and evaluate them and find the ones that shine.

At Mpression, we support technologies and creators who may be small now but have great potential for the future. For example, in recent years, venture companies and individuals who challenge new manufacturing using 3D printers and open source hardware are attracting attention as "Makers". "Mpression" also supports "Makers" through workshops and prototyping kits that enable them to start prototyping immediately even if they have little knowledge of hardware.

Mpression will continue to connect cutting-edge technology and intelligence with a global perspective, and continue to take on the challenge of bringing about innovation through the power of IC and IT.
And together with various industries and companies, we will create an exciting future that no one has seen yet.
