About

Built by operators.

Mantra Semiconductor was founded by people who have run fab engineering, equipment businesses and semiconductor supply chains across Asia, the United States and India. We started Mantra because India's fabs need the ecosystem around them built now, alongside the fabs, not after.

Co-founder

Vish Srinivasan

More than 30 years in global semiconductor operations, across fab engineering, equipment, materials and supply chain.

Vish has built and run critical functions at some of the world's largest fabs, device makers and equipment companies. Most recently he led supply chain for Tata Electronics' semiconductor group, covering the Dholera fab, the Jagiroad assembly and test site and back-end R&D. He also ran a 30-part Fundamentals of Semiconductor Manufacturing lecture series for the team there.

How we work

What we hold ourselves to

Operating depth

We have run the functions we advise on. Our advice comes with a plan someone has executed before.

Long relationships

Fabs take years to build. We commit to partners and customers for the whole journey, and many of our ventures make us part-owners of the outcome.

Plain answers

If a product has no market in India yet, or a plan has a gap, we say so early.

Footprint

Singapore base, India focus

Mantra Semiconductor Pte. Ltd. is incorporated in Singapore and works across India and Southeast Asia. Singapore gives us a neutral base close to the region's established semiconductor industry. India is where most of our work is: with the fabs, OSATs, state missions and suppliers building the country's chip industry.
