Blackpepper Technologies: An innovative technology leader making an impact with design solutions for global semiconductor companies
Blackpepper Technologies is a leading global end to end system design and product engineering company. It is a full-fledged silicon and system player providing differentiated product engineering capabilities for global semiconductor and system companies.
BlackPepper offers comprehensive turnkey solutions across Consumer Electronics, Automotive, Medical, Industrial Automation, Defense, Wireless and the Internet of Things.
The company's distinct functional units include Logic Design & Verification, Design for Test, Physical Design, Board Design, Analog & Mixed Signal Design, Post Silicon Validation, Yield Optimisation, Supply Chain Management, Industrial Design and Embedded Software.
BlackPepper's AI (Artificial Intelligence), ML (Machine Learning) and DL (Deep Learning) driven solutions cater to applications like ADAS, Predictive Machine Monitoring, Autonomous Platforms, etc.
BlackPepper is actively transforming itself into a company that is squarely at the heart of the product end user experience.
Since its inception, Blackpepper's work culture is built over years of experience in providing innovative solutions to their clients and their indomitable spirit to excel in all aspects of their engagement.
With multiple products and services in India and Singapore, Blackpepper continues to fuel technological innovations in multiple verticals.
The company is today a trusted design partner for global top 15 semiconductor companies. They are now continuing to expand globally aggressively, including Israel, Malaysia, USA and Europe leveraging their two core assets – Lean Tall Engineering (LTE) and EYWA.
Spearheading the company's rapid growth at the current stage is Founder & CEO of BlackPepper Technologies, Hari krishnan Puravankara. With extensive global experience across domains, he is a successful versatile leader in this field.
In the lounge with Abhishek Dubey – Senior Editor, The CEO Magazine, he shares his vision of creating a transformational global hardware company that will be listed on the Indian browses in 2021 with a valuation of atleast USD 1Bn. .
The evolution of technology will become core to our ecosystem and IoT (Internet of Things), AL (Artificial Intelligence), ML (Machine Learning), will be at the core of industry 4.0 and BlackPepper will be at the middle of this evolution, designing products that will transform the end user experiences.
One of the core purposes of the company is to create an enduring impact on society by building an innovative hardware-specific organization in emerging technology sectors like the Internet of Things.
Black Pepper aims to democratize innovation by transforming ideas into tangible products and inculcate the spirit of innovation among all.
The overall ecosystem is going through rapid transformation and the technology is changing at a rapid pace. But with all this dynamic changes, the belief system within BlackPepper is still intact and is the driving force to create unique value for all in the company and the society at large
Globally the semiconductor market is witnessing massive growth and will become the core of the technological transformation. Gartner predicts there will be 20Bn connected devices and IDC is projecting the overall IoT market share to be USD1.7 Trillion by 2020.
We can look at every segment of the ecosystem, its undergoing different level of changes. Mobile phones are becoming far smarter than any other computing device, IoT is driving changes across consumer electronics to industry automation, and automobile industry is building next level transportation products and relies heavily on semiconductor at the core of it.
Locally in India as well is catching up on innovation instead of being a vanilla manufacturing ecosystem; government policies are also incorporating these transformations.
LTE or Lean Tall Engineering is a focused return to first principle engineering tenets of yesteryears where a single engineer was massively multi-skilled rather than skills and capabilities being sliced and diced across a slew of less experienced engineers.
EYWA is our home grown, unique technology framework that allows optimization of human and compute resources enabling complex designs to predictably converge to closure.
These two assets are the driving factors for our significant technological advances and winning over tier 1 to tier 3 customers globally. We continue to invest and harness it for the future growth.
BlackPepper is built on human values rather than conventional corporate priorities. Each one of our employee (alias Pepperite) – has strong engineering capabilities, passion for excellence, and above all, is a fine human being.
For BlackPepper, every Pepperite comes first, and for every Pepperite, the customer comes first.
We believe in the philosophy of collective entrepreneurship and encourage every single Pepperite to think freely, innovate tirelessly, question fearlessly and be deeply involved in every facet of the BlackPepper success story.
The company has also created an unique employee ownership model, wherein each employee will own undiluted percentage equity of the company.
BlackPepper is today the trusted design partner to the global top 15 semiconductor companies. The company continues to engage with the global companies to develop end to end silicon/system design, including the tier 3 companies who could have just an idea that could create huge opportunity.
BlackPepper will be a global semiconductor design company and already established its 100% subsidiary in Singapore and we are continuing to expand globally, including Israel, Malaysia, USA and Europe.
BlackPepper's vision is to design products that would be technologically superior and will have transformational end user experience. BlackPepper is the company that everyone should watch out for in the coming years.
