Skycore Semiconductors secures €5M to drive next-generation AI data centre innovation

Skycore Semiconductors, a startup specialising in Power Integrated Circuit (IC) technology for AI data centers, has raised €5 million in seed funding. The round was led by the Amadeus APEX Technology Fund, with participation from First Momentum, Mätch VC, and Balnord.

Founded in Denmark, Skycore has built a silicon-validated Power IC platform for applications requiring very high power density and efficiency, targeting the power-infrastructure challenges of emerging 800V high-voltage direct current (HVDC) architectures.

Its solutions deliver high power density and efficiency in compact, flat form factors, addressing a key bottleneck in scaling AI infrastructure. The company holds six patent families and is developing 800V HVDC power architectures for future AI facilities.

Skycore Semiconductors’ CEO and co-founder, Pere Llimós Muntal, stated that scaling AI compute infrastructure will require a fundamental shift in data centre power systems, with 800V HVDC architectures marking the first step toward that transformation.

Our Power IC technology platform delivers power solutions with extreme power density and efficiency in flat, compact form factors, all essential to enable HVDC architectures. We design our solutions to be inherently scalable to meet the evolving demands of future power architectures.

Skycore’s eight-person team plans to expand gradually while bringing its Power IC solutions to market in collaboration with strategic partners. The company is preparing its first commercial products and aims to capture the growing demand for AI data centre power solutions.

Its long-term vision is to lead in Power ICs for high-voltage architectures across AI data centres and other high-power applications.
