VisIC Technologies has announced the successful second closing of its Round B funding, raising $26 million to advance cutting-edge GaN power semiconductor technology for electric vehicles. The round was led by a global semiconductor leader, with Hyundai Motor Company and Kia (HKMC) joining as strategic investors. 

This milestone strengthens VisIC’s position as a pioneer in high-performance GaN power devices for automotive traction inverters and next-generation mobility.

The global EV market demands higher efficiency, improved driving range, and more sustainable power electronics. 

Traditional silicon solutions can no longer keep pace, and while SiC provides performance benefits, its high cost limits mass-market adoption. 

VisIC’s D³GaN™ platform delivers a new level of efficiency, scalability, and reliability for both 400 V and 800 V EV architectures, unlocking lighter, smaller, and more energy-efficient traction inverters. 

How the New Investment Propels VisIC Forward

• The $26M funding will accelerate key strategic developments: 
• Gen3 750V GaN dice and power modules optimization, qualification, and release 
• Gen4 1350V GaN technology for the full spectrum of EV designs 
• Supply chain stabilization and ramp-up of GaN product delivery for traction inverters 
• Expansion of GaN solutions for emerging 800V data-center power applications

These advancements position VisIC as a central enabler of the next era of electric mobility and high-efficiency power infrastructure.

Tamara Baksht, CEO of VisIC Technologies, said: “This investment marks a major milestone for VisIC and the global EV industry. Our D³GaN technology is redefining power electronics for electric vehicles, and the support of our strategic partners accelerates our mission to deliver high-efficiency, scalable solutions for the next generation of mobility.”

Hyundai Motor Company and Kia: “Hyundai Motor Company and Kia are committed to advancing sustainable mobility. Partnering with VisIC enables us to integrate cutting-edge GaN technologies into our EV platforms, enhancing efficiency, reliability, and performance as we shape the future of electric transportation.”
