Huge thanks to Deutsche Börse Venture Network for the warm congratulations!
Aachen-based deep-tech #startup secures €254m funding. ⚡Last week, Black Semiconductor successfully closed a #SeriesA funding round! Founded in 2020, the deep-tech company aims to manufacture and commercialise microchips with integrated electronic photonic circuitry. The company applies a graphene layer to semiconductor wafers and equips them with photonic connections, an approach that speeds up data transfer between microchips and makes them more energy-efficient and powerful. 🏦The capital raise includes €229 million in public funding from Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Klimaschutz and Ministerium für Wirtschaft, Industrie, Klimaschutz und Energie des Landes NRW. Additionally, venture capital investors such as Porsche Ventures, Project A, East Hill Equity - Managing Scania Growth Capital, Capnamic, TVF | TechVision Fonds and NRW.BANK contributed and increased the company’s equity by further €25 million. 🚀Congratulations to the whole Black Semiconductor team and its new as well as existing #investors on this impressive milestone. We look forward to the exciting journey ahead!
