Critical Dependencies
Saudi Arabia's pioneering fabless integrated-circuit design startup, founded in 2021 in Jeddah with an international team holding over 65 years of collective expertise in analog and mixed-signal ASICs and readout ICs (ROICs). Semchip has designed more than 115 IP blocks for healthcare, automotive, consumer electronics, security, AI, and defense applications, and relies on a global foundry network for production rather than owning fabrication capacity itself — part of the wave of fabless design companies the Kingdom's National Semiconductor Hub initiative is seeking to multiply.
