Jordan Valley Semiconductors, a private x-ray metrology company based in Israel, has received an investment by Intel Capital to the tune of $11 million.
“Intel Capital has a strong history of investing in Israel,” said Arvind Sodhani, President of Intel Capital. “A great deal of innovation is being fostered in this region and Jordan Valley represents a financially attractive investment opportunity that falls in line with our strategy to invest in pioneering technology worldwide.”
“We are delighted to have secured funding from Intel Capital,” said Isaac Mazor, CEO of Jordan Valley. “Working with Intel Capital significantly increases our profile in the industry and enables us to take full advantage of existing and new growth opportunities. From our perspective, this can only help to further expand our leadership position in the market while enabling us to accelerate technology and product development.”
Intel Capital believes that x-ray metrology has reached an inflection point from being a niche R&D technology to becoming a mainstream fab tool starting at the 45nm node and beyond.
