IPextreme Secures $6M 'Series A' Funding from Alloy and SmartForest
Dan Rubin, Partner at Alloy, commented, "We feel the semiconductor IP market is still in its infancy and represents a significant business opportunity beyond traditional IP companies. IPextreme has extensive commercial and technical IP experience, and we look forward to them changing the industry by getting established semiconductor companies into the IP game through their innovative business model."
Huoy-Ming Yeh of SmartForest added, "We find IPextreme an attractive investment since they have already proven their business model by establishing relationships with leading semiconductor companies and generating revenue. With their desirable patent-pending IP packaging technology and unique IP skill and experience, they are well positioned for success."
Warren Savage, President and CEO of IPextreme added, "In this selective venture capital market, we are pleased by such a vote of confidence, and are even more excited about getting experienced and well-connected industry veterans, Dan and Ming, on our board. With their financial support and guidance we will continue making IPextreme the natural choice for large semiconductor companies to bring their IP to market."
