Time to rethink EDA flows and tool infrastructure
Recently, I have had the pleasure of talking to a number of entrepreneurs within the EDA space and got to hear some of their concerns and recommendations for people thinking about starting a new company.

John Sanguinetti, CTO of Forte Design Systems, said it is no longer possible to think about a company formed by two or three people spending two or three years to build a new product. One of the big reasons stated is that the design flows in place today are so complex and that so many pieces and interfaces have to be provided to fit into those flows.
