The core technologies the company uses in its software come from its “own patents and technologies through self-development”, the company said, adding that it has full rights to these technologies and thus can ensure the independence of its operations. Empyrean, which counts state-owned China Electronics and the National Integrated Circuit Industry Investment Fund as its backers, aims to become a global leader in electronic design automation software by 2030 – a market currently dominated by US-based firms Cadence, Synopsis and Siemens EDA, formerly Mentor Graphics before being acquired by Germany-based Siemens.
Shanghai-listed chip equipment maker Skyverse Technology said it is not seeing any “significant impact” from the US move because it has been preparing for external shocks for the last five years. The company is able to produce key components locally and sells to the domestic market, the Shenzhen-based company told China Business News. Its shares fell 0.25 per cent on Tuesday morning.
