Adisyn Ltd (ASX: AI1), which recently acquired 2D Generation (2DG), has announced that 2DG has entered into a Business Development Agreement with M&T Semiconductor (M&T), a prominent semiconductor advisory firm.

Through this agreement, 2DG will collaborate with M&T to forge strategic partnerships with equipment vendors, semiconductor fabricators, fabless chipmakers, and end users. The goal is to secure licensing deals and/or a potential buyout for 2DG.

2DG believes that M&T's experienced team can open doors at the highest levels of the semiconductor industry, and the company expects tangible results in the near future.

M&T's Expertise and Industry Leadership

M&T is led by two seasoned semiconductor industry veterans, Dr. Itzhak Edrei and Zmira Shternfeld-Lavie, who bring over 30 years of expertise to the table.

Both leaders have extensive experience at Tower Semiconductor, the world's sixth-largest semiconductor pure-play foundry. Dr. Edrei, former president and now president emeritus of Tower Semiconductor, played a key role in expanding the company's revenue from $100 million to $1.3 billion. Shternfeld-Lavie, as the general manager of Tower's TOPS business unit, helped grow the division from zero to $200 million in annual revenue.

“We are extremely excited to be working with 2D Generation,” said Dr. Edrei. “2D materials will play a crucial role in semiconductors, and 2DG's solution represents a breakthrough for future chip technology. This is not just something the industry wants, it is something it needs.”

Shternfeld-Lavie echoed this sentiment, emphasizing the significance of 2DG's innovation and its potential to shape the future of semiconductor technology.

2DG's Game-Changing Innovation

The acquisition of 2DG by Adisyn is expected to be finalized following shareholder approval at the general meeting on December 19. 2DG has developed a patented technology that enables graphene coating at sub-300°C, a breakthrough that has never been achieved before.

This innovation is poised to open the door to next-generation semiconductors that are more miniaturized, energy-efficient, and powerful. The graphene coating improves the performance of interconnects in semiconductors, which are vital for linking components within integrated circuits (ICs). As ICs become increasingly complex, overcoming challenges like resistance, capacitance, and signal integrity is crucial.

2DG's graphene deposition technique, which allows in-situ atomic layer deposition (ALD) at temperatures below 300°C, is seen as the “Holy Grail” of semiconductor development. It promises to accelerate miniaturization, reduce power consumption, and boost performance, all while enabling scalable solutions for the next generation of semiconductor devices.

“We are honored to be guided by Itzhak and Zmira from M&T, whose industry respect and expertise bring invaluable support to 2DG,” said Arye Kohavi, chairman and CEO of 2DG. “M&T opens doors to some of the largest semiconductor companies globally, and we are excited to share our progress with the market.”

This partnership is set to redefine semiconductor manufacturing, with 2DG's innovative solution offering the potential to disrupt the market and usher in a new era of chip technology.
