Navitas Semiconductor Corporation and Cyient Semiconductors Private Limited, a fast-growing provider of ASIC, ASSP and power solutions, announced a strategic long-term partnership to accelerate GaN adoption in India and establish a complete end-to-end GaN ecosystem.
The collaboration outlines co-development of GaN products, digital and mixed-signal ICs, GaN-based system modules and design-enablement platforms addressing high-voltage, high-power markets in India, including AI data centers, electric mobility, performance computing, energy grid infrastructure and industrial electrification. The partners also intend to strengthen a local supply chain and manufacturing base aligned with the Government of India’s “Make in India” initiative, while deploying IC technologies to speed solution development in these segments.
Planned deliverables include products based on Navitas’ current GaN platforms alongside new devices tailored to India’s market needs. Cyient Semiconductors will focus on building a secure, local supply chain and ecosystem to reduce time-to-market for developers and OEMs across the region.
“This partnership represents a pivotal step in India’s semiconductor future in solving the complexities of power delivery at high voltages,” said Suman Narayan, CEO, Cyient Semiconductors. “By combining Navitas’ proven GaN technology with Cyient Semi’s design, manufacturing and supply-chain strengths, we’re creating a self-sustaining ecosystem that will accelerate the market adoption of GaN. Our goal is to make GaN accessible to every OEM looking to design, build and scale from India.”
“I believe the growth of GaN technology in India will exceed global trends, and Cyient Semiconductors is the perfect partner for Navitas to drive this revolution,” said Chris Allexandre, President and CEO, Navitas Semiconductor. “Together, Navitas and Cyient will power India’s vision of India for India—innovation, by India, for the world.”
The initiative is designed to empower Indian design houses and OEMs with locally sourced GaN components, manufacturing support and engineering collaboration, enabling faster development cycles and lowering barriers to GaN adoption. It also reinforces Cyient Semiconductors’ focus on driving semiconductor innovation, localization and scalability across critical technology sectors, while establishing a direct channel for Indian customers to access GaN technology with reliable procurement and technical support.
