About C4 partnership
Innovating in the semiconductor industry is arguably one of the toughest challenges. Hundreds of billions of dollars have been invested in this space, making it extremely difficult for startups to break through. That’s why partnering with former operators from the industry was so important to us. The depth and quality of conversation we’re able to have with the C4 Ventures team sets them apart.
“At C4 Ventures, we’re proud to back Arago’s world-class team of tech entrepreneurs who are not only pushing the boundaries of what’s possible through breakthrough innovation, but also accelerating the journey from deep R&D to real-world commercialization. By tackling the immense energy demands of AI, Arago is leading a true paradigm shift with its uniquely light-powered, energy-efficient AI chip — unlocking global market opportunities at unprecedented speed.”
