NanoCoreChip

Fractile, founded in 2022 in London, UK, develops advanced AI chips that run AI models 100x faster than traditional methods at 10x lower cost.

CiMicro.ai (思敏威集成电路), founded in 2024 in Shanghai, China, is a developer of AI inference architecture platforms and 3D compute-in-memory chips.

CIMTech is a Georgia Tech spinout (Prof. Shimeng Yu's lab) designing compute-in-memory AI memory chips and inference racks that let datacenter operators support more users and longer context within the same power budget; Georgia Tech's Feb 2026 release also framed it as a radiation-tolerant, energy-efficient AI processor for edge and space platforms.

Olix, founded in 2024 in London, develops photonic AI chips targeting inference workloads to reduce high-bandwidth memory constraints.

Founded in 2012 and based in Palo Alto, develops analog in-memory computing chips for AI inference.

Qianhe Yibang was established in 2024 and incubated by NetEase. It is one of the earliest Chinese companies focusing on 3D in-memory computing, 3D integrated native chip architecture, and cloud gaming acceleration. The core team has been researching chips based on 3D DRAM in-memory computing architecture since 2018, achieving deep integration of computing and storage through 3D space stacking, breaking through the limitations of the von Neumann architecture. NetEase Youdao and China Mobile are long-term shareholders. In 2025, it reached a strategic cooperation with Tencent Cloud. In August 2026 it closed a Series B of over 2 billion yuan, with investors including the National Adjustment Fund, the China Mobile Chain Leader Fund and other institutions.
