About us
NeuroVexon is a semiconductor IP company based in Böblingen, Germany. Vexon-1, our own NPU chip design, is the first product.
WHO WE ARE
NeuroVexon is a German technology company based in Böblingen, Germany. We develop NPU IP blocks for Edge AI and local language models — from RTL design through FPGA verification to the ASIC stage.
What drives us: artificial intelligence must be controllable, transparent and accountable — no black boxes, no data leakage, no dependence on non-European cloud providers.

What drives us
For us, sovereign AI begins with the hardware. As long as European applications run on non-European cloud and chip infrastructure, “sovereignty” remains a label — we work on the layer below.
With Vexon-1 we show that a small German company can build a serious NPU block — FPGA-verified, licensable, made in Germany. The first step on a long road.
„Whoever controls the chip controls the data."
Our principles
Depth over breadth
We specialize in Edge NPU IP. No diversification into generic AI consulting. One product, done well.
Honesty over marketing
We only state performance numbers we've actually measured. ASIC stage details only when foundry partnership is confirmed.
Sovereignty as foundation
German IP, sovereign foundry partnerships, GDPR-compliant. These values aren't bolted on — they're structural.
Long-term thinking
Chip development runs in years, not quarters. We make decisions for the next decade.
Partner network
We work with selected engineering, association and regional partners.
