InfiniLink, an Egyptian semiconductor startup specializing in next-generation chip design and connectivity solutions, has raised $10 million in a seed funding round to accelerate product development and expand into international markets.
The round was led by Silicon Badia, with participation from Global Ventures, Sawari Ventures, and several prominent angel investors with backgrounds in deep tech and semiconductors. The funding marks one of the largest seed rounds for a deep-tech startup in the MENA region to date.
Founded in 2023 by industry veterans Amr El-Geziry and Salma Nour, InfiniLink focuses on creating high-performance, energy-efficient semiconductor solutions that address critical needs in sectors such as telecommunications, data centers, and IoT devices.
“Our mission at InfiniLink is to bridge the technology gap and put Egypt on the map for advanced semiconductor innovation,” said El-Geziry, CEO of InfiniLink. “This funding will enable us to expand our engineering team, bring our first products to market, and establish strategic partnerships with global tech leaders.”
The startup is currently developing a line of ultra-low-latency connectivity chips designed to improve data transmission speeds and reduce energy consumption in large-scale network infrastructures.
Investors highlighted InfiniLink’s strong technical expertise and the growing global demand for semiconductor innovation as key drivers behind their support.
“InfiniLink has assembled a world-class team tackling one of the most pressing challenges in modern computing: faster, greener connectivity,” said Nameer Khan, General Partner at Silicon Badia. “We are proud to back a company that not only has global potential but also represents a new frontier for deep-tech entrepreneurship in the Middle East.”
With this new capital, InfiniLink plans to scale its R&D operations, establish a presence in Europe and the United States, and begin pilot programs with major telecom and cloud service providers by early 2026.
The raise also signals a growing interest in hardware innovation from investors in emerging markets, as countries like Egypt position themselves as hubs for advanced technology development.
