Case Study
Everspin TechnologiesAccelerating data storage
During the financial crisis, when others became inactive, Lux became active. We had closely followed a valuable technology program within Freescale Semiconductor, that in 10 years, had successfully progressed from DARPA-funded science to a commercial product. Based on spintronics (the spin of individual electrons), this novel non-volatile memory technology would enable instant-on computing. The effort had attracted significant investment from both Motorola and Freescale, with a leading 50-person development team boasting more than 350 foundational patents and millions of dollars in capital equipment. Lux helped lead the spin-out of the unit from Freescale into a new venture called Everspin, constructing an investment thesis, forming the investor syndicate and negotiating the transfer of products, assets and intellectual property. Today, the company is dramatically ramping operations, growing sales by more than 200% in the last year alone.
