Blue Cloud Softech Solutions Limited has entered into a USD 150 million Technology Ownership Transfer (ToT) agreement with an Israel-based tech company to co-develop advanced edge-AI semiconductor chips in India. The five-year plan includes tech integration, product development and local manufacturing, fully aligning with the government's Aatma Nirbhar Bharat initiative.
Under the deal, the Israel partner will transfer hardware architecture and design, while Blue Cloud will own and develop the complete software stack, securing full IP ownership in India. The chips will power next-gen AIoT, industrial automation, energy, and defense applications.
The company is also in talks with Indian fabs for domestic chip production and will use the technology to support its existing USD 15 million oil & gas edge-AI project with Byte Eclipse, along with upcoming industrial and defense projects.
The edge-AI chip features a hybrid multi-core SoC with 32 TOPS NPU, 10G Ethernet, 5G support, AES-256 security, MIL-grade ruggedization, and <10W power efficiency, designed for real-time industrial and defense environments.
The move marks a major step towards building India-owned semiconductor IP, strengthening the country’s footprint in the global chip ecosystem.
