As we close out 2025 at Soctera, weโ€™re proud of the progress we've made this year towards our mission: delivering the worldโ€™s most powerful and thermally efficient RF amplifiers for radar, SATCOM, and telecom systems.

Our Trailblazer wafer completed the first successful run of Soctera's commercial production line, marking a major milestone in our lab-to-fab transition.

From Mobile World Congress to IMS, we spent time listening to RF system designers across telecom, defense, and SATCOM. Those conversations are directly shaping our first-generation products. Bonus: we had our first company booth at IMS!

We demonstrated step-function improvements in key metrics customers care about, including record transconductance and >11 W/mm output power at X-band frequencies.

We've totaled $3.6M in non-dilutive funding from NSF, DoD, and CHIPS-related programs supporting this transition from breakthrough research to deployable products.

Weโ€™re incredibly grateful to our advisors and supporters who helped make 2025 a pivotal year. If youโ€™re interested in early access to samples, partnerships, or investing as we scale into product and revenue, weโ€™d love to connect.
