Eliyan Corp., a Silicon Valley chip interconnect startup, achieved unicorn status with a $1 billion valuation following a $145 million Series C round led by Seligman Ventures. The company has developed electro-optical interconnects designed to address bandwidth bottlenecks between compute, memory, and networking components in AI data centers. Eliyan plans to use the funding to advance product development and expand manufacturing, with its technology already under evaluation by major hyperscalers and AI accelerator suppliers.
