Would you invest in a semiconductors startup?

Probably not. How much venture funding do you have? Enough to build a fab with?

At this moment we did not get any funding, we've used our savings. We have an MVP fab.

What semiconductor are you planning to make that doesn't already exist (and already cheaper due to economies of scale than you can make it)?

There's a reason that whole countries prefer to 'buy-built' rather than 'build-their-own'. Ferinstance, China would prefer to buy ready-made chips from the USA than have to build their own semiconductor industry all the way up from scratch. But the US won't sell what the Chinese want to buy, so the Chinese will need to 'build-their-own' by throwing hundreds of billions of dollars at the task of doing so.

There is a semi that we needed to rethink the whole fab flow, you will love it like we do. We did search for buy-built just what we needed could not be built, we needed to build-our-own, we believe it will change the industry and a few others industries also.

What kind of product do you envision?

Magnificent, we have a prototype, you will be blown away :)
