Our History

Founded in 1989 in Ottawa, Canada, TechInsights first appeared on the semiconductor scene as Semiconductor Insights when a small reverse engineering group was spun out from a memory design company.

Initially a services business, we provided engineering consultancy to deliver custom projects for clients. Over time, we generated significant content from those custom projects, so we began reselling content in the form of reports to other customers. The organization steadily grew both organically and through mergers and acquisitions, filling the market’s need for deep technical analysis on leading semiconductor technologies.

Although TechInsights has been the leading supplier of technical analysis in the semiconductor market since its inception, Chipworks was a strong competitor providing complementary technical expertise. Because of this complementary positioning, the two organizations combined forces in 2016 and unified in 2017. Through incredible dedication and focus on becoming the world’s foremost authority on semiconductor analysis, TechInsights has continued to expand its areas of coverage.

Strategic acquisitions between 2019 and 2021 allowed TechInsights to build upon its depth and breadth of semiconductor analysis with the addition of market and manufacturing analysis, pricing, and supply chain.
