EnSilica Establishes New Engineering Hub in Cambridge

 

EnSilica, a leading chip maker of mixed signal ASICs (Application Specific
Integrated Circuits), is pleased to announce that it has established a new
engineering hub in Cambridge, UK.

 

Drawing on Cambridge's renowned semiconductor ecosystem, EnSilica has opened a
new engineering facility in the city and has recruited six engineers, four of
whom hold PhDs, thereby increasing the company's global workforce to 190.

 

With the addition of this new facility and technical expertise, EnSilica will
expand its existing mmWave / RF integrated circuit design capabilities, an
area in which the Company has already seen significant customer demand. The
expansion has been facilitated by the recent UK Space Agency C-LEO funded
award, alongside additional contract momentum and customer wins that continue
to support the Company's growth.

 

EnSilica currently operates across three UK engineering design centres in
Abingdon, Sheffield and Bristol, alongside additional international
engineering facilities in Bangalore, India, and Porto Alegre and Campinas in
Brazil.

 

Ian Lankshear, Chief Executive Officer of EnSilica, commented:

 

"We are delighted to have not only secured a team of highly skilled engineers
at a time when there is a very real shortage of engineering talent in the UK,
but also to establish a firm base in an established UK tech hub like Cambridge
which ideally positions the business to attract additional talent.

 

By further expanding our engineering knowhow across the satellite and
communications market, I believe that this investment will enable the business
to capitalise further on very real and near-term growth opportunities."
