A*STAR and partners launch EDA Garage to aid semiconductor sector

CM Engineering Labs Singapore is the first subscriber of the initiative.

The Agency for Science, Technology, and Research (A*STAR) in collaboration with Enterprise Singapore, and EDA companies, Cadence, Keysight, and Synopsys, launched the Electronic Design Automation (EDA) Garage to aid local semiconductor companies.

The initiative is part of A*STAR’s inaugural “Innovate Together” event.

The EDA Garage aims to advance EDA tools accessible to local companies, especially start-ups and SMEs. These tools are specialised software suites that are used to design, simulate, analyse, and verify semiconductor chips virtually before they are fabricated.

Under the EDA Garage, local companies will be able to purchase flexible, pay-per-use tool licenses. In addition, Cadence, Keysight, and Synopsys will offer training and support to use their tools.

CM Engineering Labs Singapore is the first subscriber of the EDA Garage.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
