Altera has entered into a strategic distribution agreement with European electronics distributor Rutronik aimed at expanding customer access to its field-programmable gate array (FPGA) technologies across Europe.
The partnership forms part of Altera's broader multi-distributor strategy and is intended to provide customers with greater purchasing flexibility, enhanced technical support and improved supply chain resilience. Through the agreement, Rutronik will distribute Altera’s FPGA portfolio to customers across the region, supporting projects from initial development through to production.
Thomas Boudrot, Head of EMEA Sales at Altera, said the company’s focus as an independent FPGA supplier is to help customers accelerate innovation.
