Synopsys Expands Access to Advanced Chip Design Capabilities Through European Chips Design Platform

Jari Kinaret, Executive Director of the Chips Joint Undertaking, Chips JU

“Europe's next generation of semiconductor innovation will come from organizations of many different sizes, not only established chip companies. EuroCDP is designed to give startups, SMEs and research teams a clearer pathway to the resources they need to develop new technologies. Expanding the platform with Synopsys' advanced design capabilities is an important part of making Europe's chip innovation ecosystem more accessible and dynamic.”

Antonio Varas, Chief Strategy Officer, Synopsys

“Europe has a strong foundation of world-class semiconductor research and entrepreneurial talent. EuroCDP can help build on that strength by expanding access to the advanced design capabilities innovators need to turn ideas into silicon”

Antonio Varas, Chief Strategy Officer, Synopsys

“By joining the initiative, Synopsys is helping EuroCDP members accelerate their design process, contributing to the goals of the European Chips Act and a stronger, more competitive European semiconductor ecosystem.”

Giuseppe Garcea, Director of Strategic Procurement & Founding Team Member, Axelera AI

“Europe has the technical talent and innovation potential to build a world-leading semiconductor ecosystem, but giving emerging companies access to advanced design technologies and expertise is critical to turning that potential into successful products. Synopsys and EuroCDP can help lower those barriers, enabling more startups and research teams to develop their capabilities, accelerate innovation and expand semiconductor design expertise across Europe.”
