DUBLIN: The "Global AI Chips Market 2026-2036" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global AI chip market is experiencing unprecedented growth in 2025. The first quarter of 2025 demonstrated the market's robust health with 75 startups collectively raising over $2 billion. AI chips and enabling technologies emerged as major winners, with companies developing optical communications technology for chips and data center infrastructure pulling in over $400 million. Notably, six companies raised at least $100 million in investment during Q1 alone. Recent funding rounds throughout 2024-2025 reveal sustained investor confidence across diverse AI chip technologies.

Major European investments include VSORA's $46 million raise led by Otium for high-performance AI inference chips, and Axelera AI's €61.6 million grant from the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking for RISC-V-based AI acceleration platforms. Asian markets showed strong momentum with Rebellions securing $124 million in Series B funding led by KT Corp for domain-specific AI processors, while HyperAccel raised $40 million for generative AI inference solutions.

Emerging technologies attracted significant capital, particularly in neuromorphic computing and analog processing. Innatera Nanosystems raised €15 million for brain-inspired processors using spiking neural networks, while Semron secured €7.3 million for analog in-memory computing using memcapacitors. These investments highlight the industry's push toward ultra-low power edge AI solutions.

Optical and photonic technologies dominated large funding rounds, with Celestial AI raising $250.0M in Series C1 funding led by Fidelity Management & Research Company for photonic fabric technology. Similarly, quantum computing platforms attracted substantial investment, including QuEra Computing's $230.0M financing from Google and SoftBank Vision Fund for neutral-atom quantum computers. Government support continued expanding globally, with Japan's NEDO providing significant subsidies including EdgeCortix's combined $46.7 million in government funding for AI chiplet development. European initiatives showed strong momentum through the European Innovation Council Fund's participation in multiple rounds, supporting companies like NeuReality ($20 million) and CogniFiber ($5 million).

North American companies maintained strong fundraising activity, with Etched raising $120 million for transformer-specific ASICs and Groq securing $640 million in Series D funding for language processing units. Tenstorrent's massive $693 million Series D round, led by Samsung Securities, demonstrated continued confidence in RISC-V-based AI processor IP. The sustained investment flows reflect fundamental shifts in AI computing requirements. Industry analysts project that the market for gen AI inference will grow faster than training in 2025 and beyond, driving demand for specialized inference accelerators. Companies like Recogni ($102 million), SiMa.ai ($70 million), and Blaize ($106 million) received substantial funding specifically for inference-optimized solutions.

Edge computing represents a critical growth vector, with companies developing ultra-low power solutions attracting significant investment. Blumind's $14.1 million raise for analog AI inference chips and Mobilint's $15.3 million Series B for edge NPU chips demonstrate investor recognition of the edge AI opportunity.

The competitive landscape continues evolving with new architectural approaches gaining traction. Fractile's $15 million seed funding for in-memory processing chips and Vaire Computing's $4.5 million raise for adiabatic reversible computing represent novel approaches to addressing AI's energy consumption challenges.

AI chip startups secured a cumulative US$7.6 billion in venture capital funding globally during the second, third, and last quarter of 2024, with 2025 maintaining this momentum across diverse technology categories, from photonic interconnects to neuromorphic processors, positioning the industry for continued rapid expansion and technological innovation.

Data center and cloud infrastructure represent the primary growth drivers. Chip sales are set to soar in 2025, led by generative AI and data center build-outs, even as traditional PC and mobile markets remain subdued. The investment focus reflects this trend, with optical interconnect and photonic technologies receiving substantial attention from venture capitalists and strategic investors. Government funding has become increasingly strategic, with governments around the globe starting to invest more heavily in chip design tools and related research as part of an effort to boost on-shore chip production.
