Bengaluru-based C2i Semiconductors has raised 15 million dollars in Series A funding led by Peak XV and TDK Ventures to solve the AI power bottleneck. As next-gen GPUs surpass 1,000W, traditional power conversion loses up to 20 percent of energy before reaching the core. C2i's grid-to-GPU architecture replaces incremental component fixes with a configurable system-level platform to slash these losses. This investment highlights India's transition to owning critical global IP for sustainable AI infrastructure. ⚡🏢🇮🇳
