ChipFlow is a UK semiconductor SME with a core project team of Rob Taylor (CEO), Tomi Rantakari (COO/Senior General Manager) and Staf Verhaegen (CTO).Past and future technological developments are supported by advancements in electronics. This growing market requires integrated circuit (IC) solutions that can deliver flexible, adaptable and cost-effective alternatives to the current expensive proprietary options. The design and manufacture of plastic ICs have the potential to meet these needs and give SMEs greater access to technology innovations to increase efficiency. Design and manufacture of plastic IC can also contribute to much-needed reductions in electronic, plastic and other forms of waste and help build a circular economy.ChipFlow is developing a PaaS combining plastic IC design and manufacturing processes with maximum use of open-source components/IP. This innovation will enable a 10x cost reduction when compared to competitors' proprietary silicon solutions. ChipFlow will provide an optimised solution for the plastic IC manufacturing process and give SME customers the chance to design their own IC with reduced costs and design time.The ChipFlow platform will provide a critical, missing piece to plastic IC foundries by offering bespoke designs that are cheaper and faster. Beyond the direct economic benefits, plastic IC will enable significant business benefits, including new ways to reduce and eliminate waste. ChipFlow's initial focus on the healthcare and logistics sectors will deliver solutions to improve people's health and reduce plastic waste. ChipFlow also offers a global proposition in a market where the UK does not currently have a footing.

Chipflow是英国的半导体中小企业，Rob Taylor（CEO），Tomi Rantakari（COO/高级总经理）和Staf Verhaegen（CTO）（CTO）和未来的技术发展得到了电子学的进步支持。这个不断增长的市场需要集成电路（IC）解决方案，这些解决方案可以为当前昂贵的专有选择提供灵活，适应性和成本效益的替代方案。塑料IC的设计和制造有可能满足这些需求，并使中小型企业获得更大的技术创新，以提高效率。塑料IC的设计和制造还可以导致电子，塑料和其他形式的废物的急需减少，并有助于建立循环经济。Chipflow正在开发一个PAAS，将塑料IC设计和制造过程的PAAS与最大程度地使用开源组件/IP一起使用。与竞争对手专有的硅解决方案相比，这项创新将使10倍的成本降低。 Chipflow将为塑料IC制造过程提供优化的解决方案，并为SME客户提供以减少成本和设计时间设计自己的IC的机会。芯片流平台将通过提供更便宜且更快的定制设计来为塑料IC铸造厂提供一个至关重要的，缺失的作品。除了直接的经济利益之外，塑料IC还将带来重大的业务利益，包括减少和消除浪费的新方法。 Chipflow最初对医疗保健和物流部门的关注将提供解决方案，以改善人们的健康并减少塑料废物。 Chipflow还在英国目前没有立足点的市场中提供了一个全球主张。
