Arteris Named to Fast Company's Annual List of the World's Most Innovative Companies of 2026
CAMPBELL, Calif., March 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Arteris, Inc. (NASDAQ:AIP), a leading provider of semiconductor technology for accelerating innovation in the AI era, is proud to have been named to Fast Company's prestigious list of the World's Most Innovative Companies of 2026. Arteris ranks #4 most innovative company in the North America category as this year's list shines a spotlight on businesses that are shaping industry and culture through their innovations.
"We are honored to receive this recognition by Fast Company, as it reflects our commitment to addressing rapid changes in the semiconductor industry, as well as setting new standards for what is possible through innovation," said K. Charles Janac, president and CEO of Arteris. "From automating complex network-on-chip creation to enabling secure, scalable data movement for billions of chips, we are focused on solving the industry's toughest challenges as AI and chiplet-based architectures continue to evolve."
With its proven success in technologies that accelerate silicon design, Arteris has delivered key innovations that help simplify the development of increasingly complex semiconductor systems in the AI era. At the center is FlexGen, the industry's first smart network-on-chip (NoC) IP. FlexGen replaces the traditionally manual, time-intensive process with intelligent automation that enables teams to generate optimized interconnects in a fraction of the time with significantly improved power, performance, and area (PPA) results.
In response to the industry's rapidly growing shift toward chiplet-based architectures for AI and high-performance computing, Arteris has advanced its multi-die solutions to help address ongoing design challenges. This includes expanding its system-on-chip (SoC) integration automation portfolio with Magillem Packaging, which streamlines standardized IP and chiplet integration. The acquisition of Cycuity in early 2026 added semiconductor cybersecurity assurance to the Arteris portfolio, addressing the growing need for secure data movement in modern silicon development.
Combined, these efforts are reflected in real-world scale, with Arteris network-on-chip technology shipped in more than 4 billion chips and chiplets for major customers and numerous emerging AI innovators globally, developing tomorrow's technologies for AI data centers, edge AI devices, and physical AI systems.
