Eliyan Joins Eindhoven’s Innovation Ecosystem with Breakthrough Chiplet Technology

October 2, 2025
Eliyan, a fast-growing semiconductor innovator from Silicon Valley, has officially landed at the High Tech Campus in Eindhoven. Founded in Santa Clara, California, in 2021, Eliyan is at the forefront of the global shift toward chiplet-based design—a modular approach to building faster, more efficient chips that power the future of artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance computing.

Reinventing chip-to-chip connectivity

At the heart of Eliyan’s mission is solving one of the semiconductor industry’s biggest challenges: how to move data faster and more efficiently within AI and computing systems. Eliyan has developed an advanced interconnect technology that enables higher bandwidth and lower power consumption between chiplets, unlocking scalability and efficiency for next-generation AI infrastructure.

Unlike other approaches, Eliyan’s technology can deliver these performance benefits not only on cutting-edge advanced packaging substrates, but also on standard organic substrates—making it more cost-effective and broadly applicable across industries. From hyperscale data centers to consumer electronics, Eliyan’s solutions help overcome bottlenecks in data movement, enabling faster, greener AI systems.

A perfect fit for Eindhoven

To fuel its global growth, Eliyan has chosen to establish an R&D design center at High Tech Campus 41 in Eindhoven. The decision was driven by the region’s rich talent pool, especially in analog chip design, and the collaborative spirit of the Brainport ecosystem.

Edward Paulus, Senior Director Eliyan: “Eindhoven stood out because of its unique concentration of semiconductor expertise and its culture of open innovation,” . “By joining the High Tech Campus community, we are ideally positioned to strengthen our global R&D operations and accelerate our engagement with the European AI and semiconductor market.”

Why the Netherlands?

The Netherlands offers Eliyan an ideal base to connect with Europe’s innovation network. The High Tech Campus in Eindhoven—often referred to as “the smartest square kilometer in Europe”—is home to more than 300 high-tech companies, research institutions, and startups. Its collaborative ecosystem provides Eliyan with access to world-class engineering talent and opportunities to co-develop new solutions with partners across the semiconductor and photonics value chain.

Building for the future

Eliyan’s ambitions align with the rapid expansion of the global AI chip market, projected to reach $500 billion by 2030. In the coming years, the company aims to:

  • Expand its engineering teams in Europe and worldwide.
  • Accelerate commercialization of its silicon-proven technology with leading AI and memory chip manufacturers.
  • Support the deployment of more energy-efficient, higher-performing semiconductor solutions for AI, hyperscalers, and data center operators.

With strong investor backing and momentum from recent successful chip tape-outs, Eliyan is preparing for its next phase of growth, including a planned Series C funding round.

Strengthening Europe’s semiconductor hub

Maarten Brouwer, Teamlead Foreign Investments BOM: “The arrival of Eliyan underlines the Netherlands’ position as a magnet for knowledge-intensive companies shaping the future of technology. By combining Silicon Valley innovation with Eindhoven’s world-class engineering ecosystem, Eliyan is set to play a defining role in the next wave of semiconductor and AI breakthroughs.”
