Our take

Today’s technological landscape is experiencing exponential rates of innovation, leading to powerful technologies such as artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and self-driving vehicles. However, such technology is complicated to develop efficiently and greatly relies on developing bespoke cutting-edge silicon semiconductors.

Synopsys develops software, electronic design automation, and semiconductor solutions, helping automotive, aerospace, IoT, networking, and other industries to reflect the current state of technological innovation in their products. In addition to providing solutions and consultancy for software design, the company also provides solutions for the automated building, verification, management, and optimization of the bespoke silicon semiconductors required to power cutting-edge software and hardware.

Whilst worldwide supply chain bottlenecks present tremendous obstacles to the semiconductor industry, Synopsys is not a new player and has demonstrated an excellent track record for innovation within silicon and software solutions over the past three decades. With supply chains beginning to recover, the company shows great potential to thrive in the coming years, aiming to help businesses develop the bespoke semiconductors and software solutions necessary to innovate within their industries.
