Funding is increasingly tight for IC start ups.
If you're in start up mode youself this is merely stating the obvious. In recent times there have been announcements of start ups getting funding (eoSemi and Mirics to name a couple) but deal flow is slowing. The basic problem is that it takes a long time and a (relatively) lot of money before investors can see a return. Add to this the amount of money already tied up with investors and attractive returns available in other sectors and its easy to understand why.

Well done Dr. Derek...
Last week the University of Glasgow bestowed the award of an honorary doctorate to my colleague Derek Boyd for his services to the semiconductor industry. A BIG congratulations to him on that - its well deserved as he works very hard for the cause - right across the board. I don't think it'll change him as he's a very humble man... if anything it will add further fuel to his passion... for the industry (of course)!

Is the era of the VC backed IC start up over?
With the costs associated with starting an IC company increasing and the length of time it takes to see a return on that investment many VC's have moved to later stage investments or vacated the area altogether. However start ups are vital to innovation in a great many electronics sectors hence the financing of this community is important. Necessity is the mother of invention - are we about to see a new model for start ups that does not rely so heavily on VC backing or do we need to see some hig… Continue
