chipIgnite Industry Sponsor Program.png

Help us develop the next generation of chip designers

The chipIgnite Industry Sponsor Program provides direct support for fabrication of open-source projects for universities and other community members. By sponsoring a project, you can help us make chip design more accessible and affordable, and you can also get your name in front of the next generation of chip designers.

Sponsored projects will be promoted by Efabless through feature articles, sponsor branding, announcements and other communications. You can also target selected universities or regions, or specify an application- or technology-focus or other project requirements.

By sponsoring a chipIgnite shuttle, your company can:

  • Support innovation and enhance IC design education for undergraduate and graduate student programs
  • Get your brand in front of an engaged and growing community of over 9,000 open-source designers
  • Align your brand with cutting-edge projects that are gaining attention from the community and industry
  • Identify and attract new potential talent for your organization
