Founded in 1992 by engineers Mike Kropp and Bob Harris, PEER Group® has become the preeminent supplier of automation and connectivity software for the semiconductor industry.
Considered one of the world’s most complex industries, semiconductor manufacturing involves more than 700 processing steps – some requiring nanometer-level precision – to turn processed silicon into a functional computer chip. Each day, more than one billion semiconductors are made in factories worldwide, and every single one of these chips is built using tools running software developed by PEER Group.
PEER Group employees are proud that Canadian performance, innovation, and engineering are playing an integral role in a global industry that has fueled revolutionary advancements in consumer electronics, mass communication, medical devices, autonomous transportation, and artificial intelligence.
With the semiconductor industry projected to hit over a trillion dollars in revenue by 2030, this role, and the need for world-class software developers, will only increase in importance. Talent and expertise in SEMI Standards, cybersecurity, AI, smart manufacturing, and other advanced processing and manufacturing disciplines will help Ontario, and Canada as a whole, realize the motivation behind the National Engineering Month’s mission to celebrate, empower, and inspire young engineers to make a difference and be the change they want to see in the world.
Proudly Canadian, PEER Group is honoured to support this year’s National Engineering Month.
