The faster you can get the chips in production, the higher are your profit margins. The first company takes almost all of the profits in this industry.Tobias Ludwig, CEO and Founder LUBIS EDA
A Brief Introduction to K-Town
This time we talk for the first time to a startup and a founder, based in Kaiserslautern (to the GI’s stationed close by known as K-Town). The city is locally also known as “Lautern.” This is a city in the German state of Rheinland-Pfalz, approx. 1,5 hours away from Frankfurt. They are known for their rich history, dating back to the 12th century, and their great Technical University. The Technical University of Kaiserslautern is home to two Fraunhofer Institutes and the Max Planck Institute for Software Systems. They are also home to one of the locations of the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI), one of the world’s largest nonprofit contract research institutes for software technology based on artificial intelligence, which shareholders include Google, Microsoft, SAP, and Daimler.

The Founder
We interview the founder Tobias Ludwig (https://www.linkedin.com/in/tobias-ludwig-5b1274a0/), CEO and founder of LUBIS EDA (http://lubis-eda.com,https://www.linkedin.com/company/lubis-eda/). Tobias has developed software since he was 14, starting out writing websites. Ever since he was working, developing software, and studying. He also spent one year at Michigan State University on an exchange program. The company is an early-stage startup, providing software for the semiconductor industry, likely a game-changer for the industry.
If you have a problem with the design of your chips is faulty, you may only find out after you started production. Than you have to trash all the newly produced faulty chipsTobias Ludwig, CEO and Founder LUBIS EDA
The Startup
The software of LUBIS EDA helps semiconductor producers to accelerate their production of new (http://lubis-eda.com,https://www.linkedin.com/company/lubis-eda/). In the chip industry, the first company to offer a new chip gets almost all the profits. Therefore, it is very important for semiconductor producers to be fast. The software of LUBIS EDA helps you to save up to 2 months in your development and assures your chip design is fault-free. With LUBIS EDA there is no need for starting over the chip development shortly before the production is about to start, since an error was discovered.
Conservative time savings estimate with our tool is 10%, which can go up to 20%. This may add up to two months in time savings.Tobias Ludwig, CEO and Founder LUBIS EDA
Venture Capital Funding
LUBIS EDA is currently looking for investors for a seed round, to maintain their competitive advantage and scale their product and sales.
Currently, we are ahead of the game, but we want to build on that.Tobias Ludwig, CEO and Founder LUBIS EDA
