STMicroelectronics and ARM have announced the creation of an innovation lab initiative to promote the ARMmbed and STM32 technologies in China. The collaboration will develop and expand the Chinese engineering community targeting global IoT opportunities.

18 polytechnic universities across China have already joined the programme, which is also supported by the Association of Fundamental Computing Education in Chinese Universities. The programme will offer teaching materials to support embedded system courses based on STM32-based development boards, ARM mbed-enabled embedded system designs and ARM Keil MDK development tools.

Over the next five years, the programme aims to establish 200 innovation labs across graduate schools, universities and professional institutions.

“ARM is successful because its ecosystem is full of inspiring and expert people,” said Allen Wu, Executive Vice president and President for Greater China, ARM. “The IoT represents an enormous growth opportunity for Chinese technology companies on the world stage and we want to support that. The STM32 Innovation Lab gives educators access to the latest teaching materials from the ARM University Program, including ST’s products, to ensure students begin their career path in the Chinese technology industry in the best way possible.”
