Market Focus on AI and mmWave

In Q3, Sivers reinforced its commitment to two secular market trends—AI acceleration and mmWave adoption. The company’s Photonics division continues to drive innovation for the AI datacenter segment with high-performance multi-wavelength laser arrays. This was showcased most recently by the joint demonstration with our marquee partner Ayar Labs at the ECOC show in September. Our 16-element laser array solution is a critical enabler for driving the “copper to optical” interconnect paradigm shift. Emphasizing readiness for manufacturing at scale, Sivers is finalizing a merchant foundry partnership to meet the growing demands of AI data centers.

Meanwhile, the Wireless division develops energy efficient RF beamforming ICs with a specific focus on the satellite communications segment. The division recorded 40% sequential growth quarter-over-quarter, and secured a new “blue chip” customer win in the Satcom segment indicating traction beyond early adopters. 

“Our technologies play a pivotal role in AI datacenters and satellite communications, which demand the energy-efficient solutions we deliver,” said Vickram Vathulya, President and CEO of Sivers Semiconductors. “We continue to deepen and expand our customer engagements, while solving relevant innovation challenges in a timely manner.”

Strategic Expansion with CHIPS Act Awards

Sivers secured two U.S. CHIPS Act awards in September, underscoring the strategic importance of our differentiated RF beamforming technology for the large and growing Electronic Warfare (EW) market. These awards highlight our future strategic positioning while acknowledging the dual-use potential in both defense and commercial applications.

Industry Recognition and Outlook

The company’s GloTel 2024 Telecom Awards nomination for “Mission Critical Excellence” underscores Sivers’ market leadership and innovative role in addressing high-stakes industry challenges with eco-efficient solutions.

Looking ahead, Sivers will continue to explore partnerships and optimize operational scale as it builds a sustainable product revenue base. “With a focus on long-term growth, an evolving product portfolio, and strong ecosystem partnerships, Sivers is well positioned to deliver innovations at scale for the AI and mmWave markets,” Vathulya added.
