About Cerebrex

Cerebrex, founded in 2012 and headquartered in Osaka, Japan, operated as a fabless semiconductor company. The company is now listed as deadpooled and has been acquired or merged. Cerebrex specialized in developing semiconductor technology for flat-panel displays.

The company's core business involved designing, developing, and selling intellectual property (IP) blocks and display controllers. These products were engineered for high-definition and mid-sized flat panel displays, addressing challenges associated with conventional design, small pixels, and high resolution. Cerebrex's product portfolio included advanced display controllers, PM LSI, backlight LED driver/controllers, and macrocells. By providing these technologies, the company aimed to support the business growth of its clients in the electronics sector.

Throughout its operation, Cerebrex secured a total of $9.52 million in funding over two rounds. Its initial funding round occurred on July 5, 2013, followed by a Series A round on July 9, 2017, which raised $7.02 million. The company attracted investments from institutional investors such as UMC Capital, INCJ, Nissay Capital, and Daiwa Corporate Investment. In a notable achievement, Cerebrex was selected as one of Red Herring's Top 100 companies in 2014.
