Many-core processor IP company Recore Systems secures $2 million Series B investment for go-to-market
Enschede – April 25, 2014 – Recore Systems, a many-core processor IP company, today announced that it has closed $2 million in Series B financing, bringing its total raise to date to $5 million. Initial Series A investors Point One Innovation Fund, Participatiemaatschappij Oost Nederland and Twente Technology Fund led this Series B financing round.
Recore Systems holds a portfolio of attractive technologies built on their longstanding expertise in many-core processor subsystem IP. This second investment round allows the company to further expand its IP portfolio and to mature it into market-ready products.
Many-core processor systems will play an ever more important role in keeping up with the electronic industry’s expected growth in computational performance.
“Many-core processor systems however are still in their infancy: various hardware configurations have been released, yet parallel programming is still far from easy,” says Dirk Logie, Recore Systems’ new CEO. “That is why we have recently started to bundle all our knowledge of heterogeneous many-core systems, real-time many-core operating systems, programming models and software development tools into a powerful, yet flexible and easy-to-program platform”.
In order to allow the company to finalize the development of this new platform and to mature it into a well supported, market-ready product, Recore Systems turned to its original investors and found them enthusiastic to continue to support the company.
“Over the years, Recore Systems has gained tremendous insights in many-core processor systems and their inner workings, both hardware and software” says Nard Sintenie, member of the Board of Directors of Recore Systems and a long time investor in the company. “Over the past year, Recore Systems has regained focus on that core strength under new management, and we fully believe in the companies’ capabilities to further exploit and build upon their expertise to release a unique product. This is why all current investors unanimously decided to continue their financial support for Recore Systems.”
