According to sources and documents reviewed by Reuters, Intel has allowed a startup to use some of its processor technology, a rare move for the US chipmaker. Intel CEO Chen Liwu and the head of the startup are long-term co-investors. The startup, called RosaicLabs Inc. submitted its initial registration documents in May, according to Delaware company registration documents. The media were unable to find relevant information on the company's official website or LinkedIn, which is common among early-stage chip startups that are operating in a confidential phase. According to filing documents updated in July, Rosaic's CEO is Amarjit Gill. Gill is an experienced venture capitalist and chip industry executive who helped Chen Liwu form the founding team for another chip company, Rivos. Meta defeated Intel to acquire Rivos last year, and Chen Liwu was the chairman of Rivos at the time.
