DNP also has participated in Jisso Open Innovation of Tops 2 (JOINT2), targeting further functional developments for mass-production in 2024. JOINT2 is a consortium comprising 12 companies developing semiconductor packaging materials, substrates, and equipment. Showa Denko Materials Co., Ltd. is the managing company, and was selected for the Research and Development Project of the Enhanced Infrastructures for Post-5G Information and Communication Systems by the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO).
“Through cooperation with the other participating JOINT2 companies, DNP will accelerate the further functionality of the interposer as well as advance initiatives aimed at mass production in 2024. We will also promote the development of next-generation semiconductor packaging technology.” says Ryoichi Ohigashi of the Research and Business Development Center, DNP.
Background
The shift to higher functionality, greater speed and lower power consumption for semiconductor products requires miniaturization technology of semiconductor by using photo-lithography. It is said, however, that further miniaturization is rapidly approaching its limit, due to the complexity of the process and high costs. To overcome these challenges, the focus is on next-generation semiconductor packaging technology that improves processing speed by mounting multiple chips (e.g., CPUs, AI processors and memories) at high-densities, on the surface of an interposer.
Features
The interposer overcomes the issue of an increase in wiring resistance, and degradation of insulation resistance between the wirings, to achieve the high-performance necessary for leading edge semiconductor packaging.
DNP manufactures templates for nanoimprint lithography, a next-generation pattern transfer technology by employing microfabrication technology based on printing processes. We also broadly expand businesses through MEMS foundry services for sensors. In this latest development, we have applied glass and silicon substrate processing developed through the aforementioned businesses for advanced packaging technologies, along with handling technology and fine wiring formation technology.

Xceedance Named a Leader and Star Performer in Everest Group’s Insurance Intermediaries Operations PEAK Matrix ® Assessment 202620.10.2026 17:00:00 EEST | Press release
Xceedance today announced it has been named a Leader and Star Performer in the Everest Group Insurance Intermediaries Operations PEAK Matrix® Assessment 2026. The assessment evaluated 18 providers based on market impact and their vision and capability to deliver insurance intermediary operations services. Everest Group identified Xceedance’s support for MGAs and MGUs across entity setup and licensing, underwriting, policy administration, finance, analytics, and claims as a key strength. The report also highlighted enabling rapid program launches and scaling through a licensed MGA shell, configurable workflows, and integrated operations. “Xceedance brings deep insurance expertise and a growing breadth of capabilities to support MGAs, brokers, and Lloyd’s market participants,” said Dinesh Udawat, Practice Director, Everest Group. “Its strategic acquisitions have expanded its agent and broker capabilities, while continued investments in AI and insurance-specific technology are enabling mo
92% of Compliance Leaders Want External Certification on AI Agents. None Exists for On-Chain Risk. Elliptic Just Built It, for Free.20.10.2026 17:00:00 EEST | Press release
Elliptic, the leader in on-chain risk management, today launched the first certification in governing AI agents for on-chain risk and financial crime compliance from the Elliptic Institute. The Certified Agentic On-Chain Risk Practitioner (CAORP) Foundation Level is free and open to anyone in the industry. The certification follows new Elliptic research in which 92% of senior risk, compliance and financial crime professionals said they would consider sending staff for external certification in agentic AI risk governance. The global research1 found a wide gap between that appetite and teams' current capability. Only 16% of respondents said they were very confident their team has the skills to govern an AI agent today, while 38% said they were not confident at all or had no capability yet. Nearly a third (31%) expect to send staff for certification within the next 12 months. The demand for training has arrived well ahead of anywhere to get it. The timing isn't optional.
