World leaders in semiconductor innovation

Pragmatic is revolutionising semiconductor fabrication with ultra-low-cost, flexible integrated circuit (FlexIC) technology that makes it quick and easy to embed intelligence almost anywhere.

With rapid cycle times that substantially accelerate time to market, our foundry provides high-volume fabrication at a fraction of the cost of silicon, and with significantly lower environmental impact.

Fab-as-a-Service, meanwhile, provides the most attainable route to semiconductor sovereignty and cost-effective, scalable fabrication.
