INDI

Indie Semiconductor, Inc.

A fabless semiconductor designer whose chips and software run inside cars, powering driver-assist features like surround-view parking cameras and in-cabin monitoring that can detect driver drowsiness. Founded in 2007 and based in Aliso Viejo, California, it went public through a blank-check merger in 2021. The name "Indie" is a nod to its independent, fabless model — it designs the chips but has them built by partner foundries, unlike big chipmakers that make their own.
