Hyderabad, India — August 5, 2025
Raja Koduri, one of the world's most influential GPU architects with leadership stints at Intel, AMD, and Apple, today announced the launch of OXMIQ Labs Inc. OXMIQ emerges from two years of stealth R&D with a world-class team holding 500+ years of combined GPU & AI experience, hundreds of patents, and over $100B in past product revenue impact.
India in the global semiconductor & AI race
With India pushing to become a semiconductor manufacturing and AI innovation hub through the government's Digital India and India Semiconductor Mission, OXMIQ's licensing-first model and software-first strategy open opportunities for Indian chipmakers, AI startups, and research institutes to access next-gen GPU IP without heavy capital investment.
"India has the talent and vision to lead in AI and semiconductor innovation. OXMIQ is creating the deep-tech intellectual property stack essential for India's sovereign zetta-scale AI infrastructure, enabling the emergence of a trillion-agent economy."
— Raja Koduri, Founder & CEO, OXMIQ
Ties to India's creative tech ecosystem
Koduri, also co-founder of Mihira Visual LabsTM with filmmaker SS Rajamouli and producer Shobu Yarlagadda, remains strategic advisor to Mihira. OXMIQ's GPU IP will power Mihira's cinematic AI platform, enabling Indian creators to tell global stories using AI-driven tools.
Software first
OXMIQ takes a Software First approach, focusing on developer experience through a unified stack that works across both OXMIQ silicon and third-party GPU and AI platforms. Its software ecosystem, OxCapsuleTM, removes hardware complexity and simplifies deployment across diverse environments.
OxPythonTM allows Python-based NVIDIA® CUDATM AI applications to run on non-NVIDIA hardware without any code changes — launching first on Tenstorrent's platform.
"We're excited to partner with OXMIQ on their OxPython software stack."
— Jim Keller, CEO of TenstorrentTM
Backed by global investors
OXMIQ has raised $20 million in seed funding from prominent technology investors, including strategic players in mobile and AI silicon such as MediaTek®, and is actively engaging with Indian semiconductor and AI partners for collaboration.
The OXMIQ hardware stack
OXMIQ delivers a complete GPU hardware IP stack, scaling from edge AI devices and robots to zettascale data centers. Its modular GPU core, OxCORETM, combines scalar, vector, and tensor engines with support for nano-agents, native Python acceleration, and CUDA/SIMD compatibility.
With OxQUILTTM, OXMIQ's chiplet architecture, customers can scale from single-core edge devices to thousands of cores — optimizing compute, memory, and interconnect to reduce time to market and cost.
