Stars of IP Party Expands for DAC 2014 in San Francisco

IPextreme teams with fourteen leading semiconductor industry players to celebrate the IP ecosystem

Campbell, Calif. – May 7, 2014 – IPextreme, Inc. today announced that it will again collaborate with key players in the semiconductor intellectual property (IP) ecosystem to host the Stars of IP party at Local Edition in San Francisco, California, on the evening of Tuesday, June 3, 2014. The event coincides with this year’s Design Automation Conference (DAC), which takes place June 1 – 5 at San Francisco’s Moscone Center.

Stars of IP celebrates all things semiconductor IP and seeks to build relationships among IP provider companies and customers, thereby strengthening the ecosystem.
