Synthara is a semiconductor AI company working on a new breed of edge-AI chips that eliminate the trade-off between performance and energy efficiency. Its technology is a result of years of interdisciplinary R&D in system architecture, neuroscience, and neural networks at the Institute of Neuroinformatics (University of Zürich and ETH Zürich). Synthara’s designs are hand-crafted for smart sensor applications whose computational workload is highly dynamic, such as wearables, IoT, and monitoring. The company is expanding rapidly and is on track to create double-digit high-tech jobs in Switzerland and Germany.

The financing round was led by High-Tech Gründerfonds (HTGF).

Synthara has been supported by both Venture Kick and Venture Leaders
