But now they are [catching] up,&#8221; Abbott commented.<\/p>\n<p>The exit strategy for most chip startups is to get acquired, but it&#8217;s a long road ahead, Abbott said. A rare exception was Nuvia, which was set up in 2019 by chip designers from Apple, AMD, Google, and others, and was then <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/2021\/03\/16\/qualcomm_closes_nuvia_announces_chipset\/\" rel=\"noopener\">bought by Qualcomm<\/a> last year.<\/p>\n<p>Software companies have been the darlings of VC firms, and it remains to be seen if sudden VC interest in chip startups can sustain, Abbott said.<\/p>\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"adun\" id=\"story_eagle_xsm_sm_md_xmd_lg_xlg\" data-pos=\"mid\" data-raptor=\"eagle\" data-xsm=\",mpu,dmpu,\" data-sm=\",mpu,dmpu,\" data-md=\",mpu,dmpu,\" data-xmd=\",mpu,dmpu,\" data-lg=\",mpu,dmpu,\" data-xlg=\",mpu,dmpu,\">\n            <noscript><br \/>\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/pubads.g.doubleclick.net\/gampad\/jump?co=1&amp;iu=\/6978\/reg_onprem\/front&amp;sz=300x50%7C300x100%7C300x250%7C300x251%7C300x252%7C300x600%7C300x601&amp;tile=3&amp;c=33YfsvbUa@fdnopWLGeMHaOwAAAAU&amp;t=ct%3Dns%26unitnum%3D3%26raptor%3Deagle%26pos%3Dmid%26test%3D0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mailinvest.blog\/wp-content\/themes\/breek\/assets\/images\/transparent.gif\" data-lazy=\"true\" data-src=\"https:\/\/pubads.g.doubleclick.net\/gampad\/ad?co=1&amp;iu=\/6978\/reg_onprem\/front&amp;sz=300x50%7C300x100%7C300x250%7C300x251%7C300x252%7C300x600%7C300x601&amp;tile=3&amp;c=33YfsvbUa@fdnopWLGeMHaOwAAAAU&amp;t=ct%3Dns%26unitnum%3D3%26raptor%3Deagle%26pos%3Dmid%26test%3D0\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><br \/>\n            <\/noscript>\n        <\/div>\n<p>&#8220;Is it a long-term thing? It&#8217;s depends on the success, really. A lot of these things are emerging technologies, and they&#8217;re still evolving. These companies need an exit strategy. There&#8217;s only so many customers for them, and those are mostly the big cloud companies,&#8221; Abbott said.<\/p>\n<p>Companies that received heavy funding over the last five years are still operational, and only a handful of failures, like Wave Computing which emerged from <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/wave-computing-and-mips-technologies-reach-agreement-to-exit-bankruptcy-301198786.html\">bankruptcy<\/a> last year. Others such as Chinese startup Bitmain, which has received billions in funding, started off focusing on cryptomining chips but diversified into AI and custom ASICs, Abbott said.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"crosshead\">\n  <span>Lead times<\/span><br \/>\n<\/h3>\n<p>It usually costs more than $50m and an order of three years for a semiconductor startup to see its first product, Andrew Feldman, CEO of Cerebras, told <em>The Register<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In a software start up it is often less than $2m. The result is with a handful of software guys and four or six months one can build a prototype of a software product, and get it in the hands of customers for feedback,&#8221; Feldman said.<\/p>\n<p>Venture capitalists like software deals because it is easy code up a demo, get customer feedback quickly, add features and pivot.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In semiconductor startups, there is a several-year period where your technology bets are embedded in hardware, and very difficult if not impossible to change. VCs don\u2019t get feedback for years after they invest capital,&#8221; Feldman said.<\/p>\n<p>Cerebras has built a mega-AI chip now being used in government labs and in the cloud.<\/p>\n<p>The chip supply chain issues have presented an opportunity for startups, but could also derail plans if shortages persists. The likes of TSMC, Samsung and Intel prefer to allocate limited manufacturing capacity to top customers, S&amp;P&#8217;s Abbott said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Startups will have difficulty in getting supply. It could complicate things. But they&#8217;re not actually shipping in massive volumes at the moment, So that&#8217;s not quite a problem yet,&#8221; Abbott said.<\/p>\n<p>Custom chips are also being designed in-house by the likes of Google, Amazon and Microsoft. Governments in US and EU are also prioritizing semiconductors with legislation promising billions in funding, some of which may go to chip startups.<\/p>\n<p>The EU is funding chip startups through the <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.european-processor-initiative.eu\/\">European Processor Initiative<\/a>, which is designing homegrown European chips based on the RISC-V and ARM architectures. \u00ae<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<iframe data-lazy=\"true\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.fiverr.com\/gig_widgets?id=U2FsdGVkX18x7XQvttUTrv1oEqmGNGTgvvCUiUoJ\/AP4z\/UyMz8lXGOLpu15jIMxBbTR0gmD5uBoFvhC4KWeALQRp3h\/X\/AwcVD0K8Wj9H\/ZzYKzcCNHosB9oS4SCJJFWiN85P9ICAc4OgCoE\/wHKIY7CDkf2\/DQ1vqGvk4smVe5cRDEmrLPCWi4FC8p40VUhSmWQ5udCm0zoJtorgWv3vbDQw0kKYkwn39ozAnQXDe+YvWMxkLFWA+O3TFwkJvdkIK+\/AUSnRssPKt5WHY0FhNOxnSPcLslEL4G4\/RfP95ve99U+kRnDy3X+KtzdQLY+u935ghON\/o3UE4IMv9oN6JX9RnxzL\/LRcOgnHigxStSGPKsZYtnz8RWNVT\/rOLAibqiWJadC5MYHRbekF3eg6FOGrQGkXYbsn0+a5aovnlLCbLwIqY9fcS17UX8J235iQ6cdmHNbrPeS84CMm34RA==&affiliate_id=1052423&strip_google_tagmanager=true\" loading=\"lazy\" data-with-title=\"true\" class=\"fiverr_nga_frame\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"350\" width=\"100%\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-mode=\"random_gigs\" onload=\" var frame = this; var script = document.createElement('script'); script.addEventListener('load', function() { window.FW_SDK.register(frame); }); script.setAttribute('src', 'https:\/\/www.fiverr.com\/gig_widgets\/sdk'); document.body.appendChild(script); \" ><\/iframe>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/go.theregister.com\/feed\/www.theregister.com\/2022\/02\/02\/chip_startup_funding\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chip startups raked in a record $19.4bn in funding last year in a boom market driven by semiconductor shortages and trade wars.
