Technological Transfer: XtremLogic Start-Up

The XtremLogic start-up (former Zettice project) was initiated 4 years ago by Alexandru Plesco and Christophe Alias. The goal of XtremLogic is to build on the state-of-the-art research results from the polyhedral community to provide the HPC market with efficient and communication-optimal circuit blocks (IP) for FPGA. The compiler technology transferred to XtremLogic is the result of a tight collaboration between Christophe Alias and Alexandru Plesco.

XtremLogic won several awards and grants: Rhône Développement Initiative 2015 (loan), “concours émergence OSEO 2013” at Banque Publique d'Investissement (grant), “most promising start-up award” at SAME 2013 (award), “lean Startup award” at Startup Weekend Lyon 2012 (award), “excel&rate award 2012” from Crealys incubation center (award).
