Tyndall and Silicon Catalyst in-kind partnership positioned to scale semiconductor start-ups
Tyndall National Institute, based at University College Cork, has announced today that it has joined with US-based incubator, Silicon Catalyst, as an in-kind partner to their portfolio companies. Silicon Catalyst is the world’s only incubator focused exclusively on accelerating semiconductor solutions.
This partnership is timely with the adoption of the European and US Chips Acts this year, and further highlights Tyndall’s reputation for research excellence in photonics devices, advanced photonics packaging & pilot lines. Tyndall continues to rank highly in European research funding, contributing to 10% of the total Irish drawdown from Horizon 2020.
Tyndall joins Silicon Catalyst’s expansive network of in-kind partners that enable early-stage companies to tap into the products and services available to enhance their growth. Silicon Catalyst has built an ecosystem of unrivalled support for semiconductor start-ups, granting privileged access to EDA design tools, silicon foundry runs and intellectual property. The incubator also provides networking, access to finance, and expert business acumen, to successfully launch and drive growth for start-ups.
The agreement will connect Tyndall’s cutting-edge research to early-stage and scaling start-ups and SMEs, fuelling the next generation of high-value, deep-tech start-ups. This partnership will allow Tyndall supports and expertise to be offered to all of Silicon Catalyst’s Portfolio Companies globally.
Silicon Catalyst has engaged with over 700 start-ups worldwide, with 90 companies admitted to the incubation programme.
