Infininode paves the way for the future of chips in space - accepted to ESA BIC

Deep tech start-up Infininode is developing technology to help chip design companies build more powerful and energy-efficient computer chips. This is crucial in space, where chips need to be extremely reliable and every milliwatt counts. Now they are accepted into the ESA BIC space incubator and receive €50 000.

- It feels very fun and important for us to become part of ESA BIC and the space community. We already have a close collaboration with a Swedish space company that manufactures chips for space. We hope that through ESA BIC we can take this partnership to the next phase and at the same time reach out to more space companies within ESA, says Infininode's CEO Patrik Millsjö.

Chips are used in many ways in space and are essential for the functioning of both spacecraft and satellites.

Based on many years of research from Chalmers

Infininode is based on many years of research at Chalmers University of Technology and the technology is developed by a team of professors and researchers from Chalmers' Department of Computer Science and Engineering.

Through their technology, they help chip design companies build more powerful and energy-efficient chips - faster and at lower development costs.

- Infininode ensures that data moves smoothly within a chip, just like a well-organized postal system in a big city. Imagine New York, where every letter and package reaches its destination instantly-without delays, lost mail, or unnecessary detours. Our solution scales seamlessly, just like a growing postal system evolving from a small town to a thriving metropolis. Regardless of size, information flows quickly, efficiently, and with minimal energy consumption, delivering better performance for computers, AI, and next-generation applications," Patrik continues.

ESA BIC opens new doors

Through ESA BIC , Infininode gains access to a European network of experts, business development support via Innovatum Science Park's business coaches and the opportunity to further develop its technology in a space context. For the company, it also means recognition of the high technical level of their solution.

- Infininode is a shining example of how cutting-edge research can be translated into great benefits both in space and here on Earth. Chips are found in everything from self-driving cars and medical implants to various types of sensors in our everyday lives, and the need for energy-efficient solutions is enormous. With Patrik Millsjö at the helm, Infininode is well placed to succeed commercially. We look forward to supporting the team going forward," says John-Erik Hassel, Business Coach and Head of ESA-BIC Sweden at Innovatum Science Park.

Infininode now joins an exclusive group of Swedish startups that have received ESA BIC's trust.
