Duolog Technologies, the NovaUCD-headquartered Collaborative Design Automation™ company, has announced that it is expanding internationally. A new sales, marketing and support office has been opened in California and the company plans to establish a similar presence in Japan later this year.
With these expansions, Duolog intends to accelerate sales and to grow its revenues by 50 per cent to $15 million during 2009. Duolog, which develops software tools that enable chip design companies to design their products faster and with fewer bugs, also scooped three awards at the 45th annual Design Automation Conference (DAC) held in Anaheim, California earlier this month.
Duolog was the overall winner of the ‘Most Interesting First-time Exhibitor’ award at the prestigious US Technology Conference and won the Trendsetter award in the ‘Best Overall New Product’ category for its Spinner tool. Using Spinner’s Perfect By Construction™ methodology chip design, companies can eliminate bugs, greatly simplify the integration effort and radically improve quality. Spinner has been used on over 17 chips to date, including the multimedia processor chip found in the new Nokia N95 Smartphone.
Ray Bulger, co-founder and CEO, Duolog Technologies said: “With this exciting debut on the global stage, Duolog is now prepared to grow beyond Europe and Ireland. We will focus on introducing our products and supporting new customers firstly in the US and then in Japan, the major global markets for EDA software and complex IC (integrated circuit) design.”
Duolog Technologies currently employs more than 80 people and is headquartered at NovaUCD. Duolog also has design centres in Galway and Budapest, Hungary.
