DESCRIPTION:Since October 2025\, we have been publicly releasing the Tokai 
 Rika 1 µm CMOS technology as an open-source PDK via the OpenSUSI reposito
 ry. In this talk\, I will first present the latest status of the open-sour
 ce PDK development\, including the key technical issues that have emerged 
 and our ongoing efforts to refine and improve the overall methodology. I w
 ill then introduce the “First Tapeout” proposal in 2026 as a talent id
 entification and development program. This initiative represents Japan’s
  first attempt to provide hands-on experience covering the full RTL-to-GDS
 II-to-chip flow in collaboration with industrial partners. Finally\, I wil
 l outline the OpenSUSI MPW shuttle program released for 2026\, which aims 
 to engage Japanese academia and further strengthen practical semiconductor
  design and fabrication experience.
