of a system design center in the Research Triangle Park area in Raleigh, North Carolina. As Open-Silicon increases its
front-end design capabilities worldwide, the company strengthens its capability to provide complete solutions ranging
from physical design and manufacturing to complex architecture and RTL design. Furthermore, Open-Silicon's business
model is significantly different from the traditional time & materials models of many\ design service companies, making
Open-Silicon the only true end-to-end solutions provider in the ASIC/SoC market.
As the semiconductor industry shifts from fab-lite towards a design-lite model, Open-Silicon is uniquely poised to
collaborate with customers' engineering teams. This engineering collaboration allows customers to add
revenue to an existing IC product line, without pulling their core design engineering team from the next generation core
product roadmap focus. The net result is a greater return on the overall product line investment.
"Our expansion in India underscores our commitment to derivative SoCs and platform solutions," said Shrikrishna
Gokhale, Open-Silicon's chief operating officer and managing director India. "There is a large pool of talent in Pune with
strong IC product development and embedded software skills. Our ability to offer complete turnkey and derivative product
development, including embedded software, allows Open-Silicon to offer comprehensive semiconductor product
development solutions to our customers looking for collaboration partners."
