PRESS RELEASE: From foundational circuit theory to advanced nanotechnology, LABS by Xinyx aims to bridge learning and industry.MANILA, Philippines – Xinyx Design, one of the largest fabless IC design houses in Southeast Asia, officially launched LABS by Xinyx on May 9 at the engineering college Colegio de Muntinlupa , unveiling the Philippines’ first flexible premium learning platform focused exclusively on Integrated Circuit Design and Microelectronics. The launch was graced by Muntinlupa City Mayor Ruffy Biazon, CDM President Dr. Teresita Fortuna, DTI-BOI Director Corieh Dichosa, TESDA Deputy Director General Nelly Dillera, and representatives from the Private Sector Advisory Council, Asian Development Bank, and numerous academic institutions interested in or already offering IC Design education across the country. Muntinlupa is fast emerging as a principal birthplace of future microelectronics engineers in Metro Manila. The city is strategically positioning itself as a hub for innovation and education in microelectronics, with initiatives like LABS by Xinyx further cementing its status. The presence of 13 microelectronics companies fosters an environment ripe for collaboration between academia and industry. Additionally, Colegio de Muntinlupa plays a crucial role by providing a strong educational foundation and hands-on training needed by aspiring engineers through its industry-grade microelectronics laboratories. Muntinlupa City is poised to produce a new generation of skilled engineers equipped to meet the growing demands of the global tech industry. LABS by Xinyx supplements the traditional BS Electronics Engineering curriculum and offers a new pathway for senior high school students, university students, STEM graduates, educators, and industry professionals to gain hands-on training, expert mentorship, and globally aligned coursework in IC Design. Courses are delivered through flexible formats – online, in-person, or hybrid – allowing learners from various backgrounds to build real-world engineering skills tailored to current industry demands. “LABS by Xinyx is the Philippines’ first premium, flexible platform focused on IC Design and Microelectronics. It’s designed to close the skills gap that limits the growth of our semiconductor industry,” said Charade Avondo, President of It is the company’s latest specific solution directly responding to President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s 2024 directive prioritizing the development of the semiconductor and electronics sector. Despite growing global demand, a shortage of IC Design talent persists locally, partly due to outdated curricula and limited access to specialized training in higher education. Avondo said multinationals in Europe and the US praise Filipino workers, including engineers, for their creativity, resilience, and innovation. “Filipino engineers are already trusted leaders in R&D teams abroad. It’s time we bring that level of innovation home,” Avondo added. IC Design is a vital yet often overlooked component of the global semiconductor value chain, creating and enabling innovations in AI, aerospace, healthcare, renewable energy, automotive tech, defense, and more. By nurturing talent development at home and steering young engineers towards this viable and lucrative career path, LABS by Xinyx positions the Philippines as a competitive player not just in electronics manufacturing but in design-led innovation.
