Noida-based fabless semiconductor startup Vervesemi has raised $10 million (approximately Rs 83 crore) in a Series A funding round co-led by Ashish Kacholia and Unicorn India Ventures. The round also saw participation from Roots Ventures, Caperize Fina, and MAIQ Growth Scheme. This marks a significant jump from its earlier $500,000 raise, as the startup moves toward commercial scaling of its semiconductor solutions.
Funding to Accelerate Commercialisation and Global Expansion
Vervesemi plans to use the fresh capital to accelerate commercialization of its machine learning–enhanced analog signal chain integrated circuits (ICs), expand its intellectual property portfolio, and strengthen research and development capabilities. The company also aims to build a strong go-to-market presence across Asia, the United States, and other major semiconductor markets, positioning itself as a global supplier of advanced chip technologies.
Building Mission-Critical Semiconductor Solutions
Founded in 2017 by Rakesh Malik and Pratap Narayan Singh, Vervesemi Microelectronics develops high-performance analog and mixed-signal semiconductor IP and IC products. Its proprietary machine learning–enabled architectures improve reliability, system efficiency, and performance in mission-critical applications across defence, industrial automation, space, and smart energy sectors.
Over the past year, the company has validated its core architecture in silicon and secured production engagements with multiple customers. It has also launched a new motor control product line designed for electric vehicles, drones, and industrial automation, integrating precision sensing and intelligent fault detection.
Vervesemi claims to have developed more than 140 semiconductor IP blocks and 25 IC product variants, supported by 10 patents and five trade secrets. The startup is also an IP alliance partner in Samsung’s Advanced Foundry Ecosystem and UMC’s IP partner network, strengthening its manufacturing and scaling capabilities.
