LAUSANNE, Switzerland, Oct. 07, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kandou, an innovative leader in high-speed, energy-efficient chip-to-chip link solutions to improve the way the world connects and communicates, was named one of Switzerland’s most promising scale-ups in 2021 by Top 100 Swiss Startup Magazine.

“It’s a great honor to be singled out for this award,” affirms Dr. Shokrollahi. “Everyone at Kandou is dedicated to enabling a better-connected world, helping evolve the electronics industry.”

Kandou, listed in the Engineering category, recently introduced the first product from the Matterhorn™ family of USB-C® multiprotocol retimer solutions with USB4™ support and the only commercially available USB4 retimer to work across all system-on-chip (SoC) platforms.
