Our take
Astera Labs was founded in 2017 to help companies ease bottlenecks in computing-intensive tasks. This is a problem that has become increasingly urgent with the rapid development of AI technology, and constitutes what Astera Labs has described as an addressable market that will reach $8 billion by 2025.
Although still relatively young, Astera Labs has had a particularly quick start. The pace of digital transformation has continued to accelerate amongst companies, meaning it has been able to grow despite the recent slowing of the economy. On top of this, its fabless approach facilitates faster scaling, helping to position the company as a market-leading connectivity provider.
With this remarkable growth and significant funding at its back, the company has cultivated a strong reputation and a range of products that tightly address pressing market issues. Lately, it has focused on growing its products and operations, particularly in North America and Asia, as well as expanding into Canada and eyeing up an IPO for 2024.
