About

NcodiN is a deeptech semiconductor company that develops optical interposer technology to support chiplet-to-chiplet communications in high-performance computing and artificial intelligence processes, breaking the copper wall that bottlenecking progress in data center processors. As AI models have grown 100x in just 5 years and the industry shifts to chiplet-based architectures, traditional copper connections are choking bandwidth and efficiency. NcodiN's optical interconnect technology uses ultra-small lasers integrated on silicon and photonic technology to enable chipmakers to pack the power of a supercomputer into a single processor. The company's technology delivers three key advantages: increased reach, extending communication beyond the limits of copper links with higher efficiency; low power consumption, with ultra-small lasers requiring 1000x less energy to transfer data compared to state-of-the-art technologies; and unprecedented bandwidth, with photonic technology meeting the extreme data throughput demand of AI and enabling Petabit/s data traffic. NcodiN's optical interposer technology enables Zettascale supercomputers and serves multiple market verticals including AGI, GenAI, smart cities, telecommunications, autonomous driving, high-performance computing, climate modeling, and medical treatment. The company has integrated the world's smallest laser on silicon and joined the FrenchTech2030 cohort. Founded in 2023 and headquartered in Palaiseau, France, NcodiN has raised $22.3M in Seed funding from investors including Elaia, Earlybird, OVNI, MIG Capital, Maverick Silicon, PhotonVentures, and Verve Ventures.
