About STMicroelectronics Ltd

STMicroelectronics is a global leader in the semiconductor industry, designing, developing, manufacturing, and marketing a wide range of microchips and electronic components — including microcontrollers, sensors, power management solutions, analog/digital/mixed-signal ICs, automotive chips, and advanced technologies such as silicon carbide and gallium nitride.

Founded in 1987 through the merger of French and Italian semiconductor companies, the company is headquartered near Geneva, Switzerland (with incorporation in the Netherlands), employs around 48,000 people worldwide, and serves key sectors like automotive (smart mobility), industrial, personal electronics, IoT, communications, and more — with a strong focus on innovation, energy-efficient and sustainable technologies for a greener future.

In Malta, STMicroelectronics has operated since 1981 at its Kirkop site (one of the largest private employers on the island with about 1,800 employees), specializing in advanced chip packaging, testing, and assembly (especially for automotive and mobile sectors), making it the company's largest packaging and testing center in Europe with ongoing Industry 4.0 upgrades.
