The collaboration of NXP and Silicon Catalyst focuses to productise the next generation of solutions.
NXP Semiconductors has joined Silicon Catalyst, as a Strategic Partner. While NXP Semiconductors mainly provide support to semiconductor hardware startups as they move from idea through prototype to initial product; Silicon Catalyst will connect NXP to the ecosystem.
This would enable leading innovation lines to be developed in the areas of AI/ML, wireless, power and connectivity. This collaboration can help innovations across the Internet of Things, automotive, AI, 5G communications and more.
Lars Reger, Executive Vice President and CTO at NXP said, “When it comes to the innovations of today that will define our industry’s future, startups are in the vanguard, creating new products based on new ideas that will change our world for the better. Incubators like Silicon Catalyst help us not only identify these up-and-coming innovators but also help them to bring those innovations to fruition as we work together to create a smarter world.”
Pete Rodriguez, CEO of Silicon Catalyst said, “Bringing NXP’s long history of innovation into the Silicon Catalyst incubator community gives our portfolio companies a leg-up as they work to productize the next generation of solutions for their target markets. This relationship not only connects NXP with our community of semiconductor pioneers but also brings NXP’s deep industry expertise to our community, who will benefit enormously from that expertise.”
