Notably, one-third of our license wins by dollar value came from top 30 global technology companies, while increasing adoption of multiple products across our portfolio reflects the growing complexity of semiconductor designs and the expanding value of our solutions. During the quarter, we also surpassed the milestone of 1,000 confirmed design starts since inception, underscoring the confidence customers place in our technology and global support capabilities. As the demand for increasingly sophisticated, high-performance, power-efficient, safe, and secure silicon continues to grow, we believe Arteris remains well positioned to help customers accelerate innovation and bring their next-generation products to market,” concluded Janac.
