IIT Bombay recently installed one of SAMCO’s Deep Reactive Ion Etch (DRIE) systems, which opens the possibility for more collaborations in the future. SAMCO’s relationship with the university is just one of many ways the company participates in the expansion and development of India’s research institutions and various markets.
