About this report
Mapper Lithography BV occupies a strategically sensitive position within the European technology base because it belongs to the narrow layer of companies that worked on advanced lithography equipment rather than on semiconductor design alone.
Its importance derives from the fact that control over chip production tools is increasingly inseparable from questions of industrial resilience, defence preparedness, and technological sovereignty.
