A team of Pillsbury lawyers represented NUVIA, a silicon design startup company, in a $240 million Series B funding round. The funds will be used to design the very first silicon Arm-based processors for datacenters in a bid to balance energy efficiency and high performance. 

Headquartered in Santa Clara, NUVIA was formed in early 2019 as a silicon design chip startup company. Now, NUVIA is building a leading-edge SoC and CPU core designed to deliver industry leading performance on real cloud workloads.

The Silicon Valley-based Pillsbury team advising NUVIA was led by Emerging Growth & Venture Capital partner Stanley Pierson and included Corporate counsel Alex Tinucci and associate Janessa Ingram.
