-
Innova�ve AI Chips: The partnership will focus on crea�ng intellectual property for electronic photonic power and systems on chips (SoC) and their integra�on into systems in package (SiP) modules.
-
High-Performance Compu�ng: Applica�ons will target AI, data centres, high-performance compu�ng, and other digital industries, including cybersecurity.
-
Environmental Impact: Addressing the scalability limita�ons and massive energy demands of semiconductors to reduce societal and environmental costs.
-
of the collabora�on strategy going forward.
-
The par�es will mutually fund the costs of developing the joint ac�on plan and the collabora�on. Adisyn does not an�cipate its contribu�on to these costs to be material at this stage. Further, Adisyn an�cipates that the ini�al revenues from the Collabora�on will be nominal at this stage, as is usually the case at the start of collabora�ons of this nature.
-
The intellectual property developed from the ac�on plan and the collabora�on will be owned solely by 2D Genera�on with the right of assignment to Adisyn for commercialisa�on on terms yet to be formalised.
-
The term of the Collabora�on Agreement is ongoing un�l terminated in wri�ng by either party.
and any further related agreements.
'Moore’s Law and Its Challenges
‘Moore’s Law states that the speed and capability of computers can be expected to double every two years, but it is facing significant challenges as semiconductors approach scalability limits. In addi�on, the massive energy demands required for data storage and processing are genera�ng substan�al costs for society and the environment. The collabora�on between Adisyn and 2D Genera�on aims to develop and refine Adisyn's overall ar�ficial intelligence strategy and priori�es, with a strong focus on energy efficient solu�ons for data centres and cybersecurity.
“The collabora�on between Adisyn and 2D Genera�on marks a pivotal step in advancing AI and semiconductor technology, promising to deliver innova�ve solu�ons for data centres and beyond. This collabora�on also underscores the cri�cal role of semiconductors in the global economy and their poten�al for enabling sustainable solu�ons” said Adisyn Managing Director Blake Burton.
The Broader AI and Semiconductor Market
The semiconductor industry is at the heart of the ongoing technological revolu�on, driven by AI advancements. According to a PwC report, the AI market is expected to reach $15.7 trillion by 2030, with an annual growth rate of 26.4% between 2020 and 2024. This growth underscores the importance of semiconductors in enabling AI technologies.

In 2020, the US invested $23.2 billion in AI research and development, with China following at $16.6 billion. The EU has also set an ambi�ous goal of inves�ng €20 billion annually in AI over the next decade. The global AI chip market is projected to grow from $10.1 billion in 2020 to $253 billion by 2030, with a compound annual growth rate of 35%.
Looking forward
Shane Wee, AI1’s Chairman said “our interac�ons with the 2D Genera�on team to date have provided a massive insight into the opportuni�es that cu�ng edge AI hardware and so�ware offer to the future of datacentres and cybersecurity defence industries. The collabora�on has only just begun and 2D Genera�on’s contribu�ons enabled specifically by the knowledge gained from their industry partners par�cularly through the Connec�ngChips ini�a�ve are seismic.”
Founder and CEO of 2D Genera�on, Arye Kohavi, agrees sta�ng “semiconductors are reaching a cri�cal juncture where processing power cannot keep up with developments in AI and the corresponding growth in data storage and manipula�on requirements. Together with AI1 and our other collabora�on partners including IMEC and our Connec�ngChips partners Nvidia, Valeo, AT&S among others, we are dedicated to inspiring the next leap in compu�ng.”
