Today, from New York City and Ambiq offices across the globe, we celebrate a milestone 15 years in the making: our entry into the public market.
For over a decade, the Ambiq team has dedicated our hearts and minds towards the goal of building the world’s lowest-power semiconductor solutions for edge devices. Our commitment is reflected in the innovative releases we strive to deliver year after year, and we are privileged to be part of this transformative journey for both manufacturers and end-users alike.
Walking into a room and seeing someone using a device powered by Ambiq’s technology remains as gratifying today as it was when I first noticed it after becoming CEO in 2015. Each year, the landscape of smart devices expands dramatically, with manufacturers pushing boundaries to differentiate their products and capture customer attention.
We have helped manufacturers establish unique identities for their devices through solutions that significantly enhance energy efficiency and performance. In a market where technology never slows down, we have not only kept pace but delivered advanced, award-winning solutions.
To date, we’ve enabled over 270 million devices worldwide. Our mission to enable intelligence everywhere remains as relevant in today’s age of artificial intelligence (AI) as it was when our company was founded.
While Ambiq’s initial growth stemmed from extending smartwatch battery life, today our applications span far beyond wearables. We serve healthcare, industrial edge, smart home and building, and numerous other sectors.
We help medical device manufacturers enhance patient health, diagnosis, and outcomes through the use of remote monitoring devices. In industrial settings, we enable technicians to predict machine failures before they occur through intelligent sensors. We help reduce costs for consumers and businesses by leveraging AI to operate more efficiently.
We’ve found particular momentum in edge AI, which is the shift from processing AI in the cloud or data centers to processing it directly on local devices. The demand for energy-efficient AI that’s always on, intelligent, and ubiquitous presents a formidable challenge, but one that we are addressing with our Sub-threshold Power Optimized Technology (SPOT) platform.
We are a leader in enabling highly capable, battery-powered devices that deliver both energy efficiency and high performance. As long as there is a need to reduce power consumption, we believe we will be ready to take on the challenge.
To our valued employees, partners, distributors, customers, and investors who have made this milestone possible, I extend my deepest gratitude. Through your unwavering belief that AI should be accessible to everyone and not just a select few, we are working to make that vision come true.
The future is bright, and we’re honored to have you with us as we embark on this next chapter.
