Corintis, a Lausanne-based startup specializing in advanced chip cooling technology, has raised an additional USD 25 million in funding, led by Applied Digital. This brings the company’s total capital raised to about USD 58 million. The investment reflects growing market pressure to manage the rising heat and energy demands of next-generation AI hardware.
Swiss startup Corintis, headquartered in Lausanne, has raised an additional USD 25 million in funding led by Applied Digital, bringing its total to around USD 58 million. The company will use the capital to accelerate global expansion, scale manufacturing, and support commercialization with major technology and data-center operators, addressing the growing challenge of cooling next-generation AI hardware.
Corintis develops advanced microfluidic liquid-cooling technology that channels coolant directly through microscopic pathways inside chips. This method can lower chip temperatures up to three times more effectively than traditional cold-plate systems. Microsoft has already validated the technology, highlighting its potential to support increasingly powerful and densely packed AI processors.
With the new funding, Corintis plans to expand its U.S. presence, including a new office in Bellevue, Washington, while ramping up production and accelerating deployments worldwide. By providing scalable, energy-efficient cooling solutions, the company aims to become a key player in powering high-performance, next-generation data centers.
The engineering company has consistently stood out, participating in Venture Leaders Mobile, winning Venture Kick, and ranking among the Top100 Swiss Startups for four consecutive years.
