SPIRIT-SEMICONDUCTOR
Spirit Semiconductor, an innovator in high-performance radio frequency solutions, today announced it will be moving to a new headquarters in Theale, U.K. and will be opening a new satellite office in Leeds, U.K. to tap into the strong radio frequency (RF) monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) and filter engineering talent in Northern England. The expansion comes on the heels of swift customer adoption and deployment of Spirit Semiconductor’s technology for 5G massive multiple-input and multiple-output (mMIMO) and small cell base stations.
Since the company’s inception in 2020, it has experienced rapid growth, developing a core team of 15 people in less than one year. Located in one of the U.K.’s technology hotbeds, the new office is five times larger than current Spirit headquarters, boasting 9,000 square feet of office space. The new Leeds office will support the company’s plans to expand its product portfolio and enter into other high growth markets.
“When Spirit Semiconductor was founded last year, we were solely focused on creating cutting edge radio frequency products for 5G mMIMO. Currently, our products are being evaluated by customers but the feedback we have received so far has been hugely positive and really provides us with the encouragement we need to branch out into other markets,” said Mark Moffat, managing director of Spirit Semiconductor. “At this rate, we are targeting 65% growth in 2021. This is only the beginning for our company, and I could not be more excited to see what the next year brings by way of innovation and expansion.”
“Massive MIMO architectures change the fundamental building blocks of the RF chain dramatically,” commented Joe Madden, chief analyst at Mobile Experts. “We are experiencing very rapid market growth for some RF components as the base station design adapts to 32T and 64T variations of massive MIMO, with tight performance requirements for RFICs to support a wide range of applications.”
Spirit Semiconductor is looking for the semiconductor industry’s top talent. The company is currently hiring for several positions: principal filter design engineer, principal MMIC design engineer, senior MMIC design engineer and senior analog IC design engineer. For additional information, contact Luke Ord at IC Resources, luke.ord@ic-resources.com , +44 118 907 3070.
“IC Resources is excited to be helping Spirit Semiconductor to identify the right talent to fuel its impressive growth,” commented Kathy Campling, client services director at IC Resources. “Spirit’s strong business plan, exciting product roadmap and generous benefits package are an attractive proposition to potential employees.”

“All Genetic Diseases Could be Cured within a Decade”, Hears Dubai Future Forum20.11.2025 14:15:00 CET | Press release
All known genetic diseases could be cured within the next decade thanks to major advances in gene editing, a leading scientist told the Dubai Future Forum 2025. Discussing his company’s research, Dr. Trevor Martin, Co-founder and CEO of Mammoth Biosciences, described “a one-time cure that will reshape the healthcare system as we know it.” This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20251120548681/en/ Dubai Future Forum 2025 (Photo: AETOSWire) Opening the forum, Khalfan Belhoul, CEO of Dubai Future Foundation, introduced the concept of “national cognitive potential”, arguing that countries in the future will gain a competitive edge in fields like AI by leveraging the collective cognitive strength of their societies. In another session, Dr. Nikku Madhusudhan, Professor of Astrophysics at the University of Cambridge, said there is a “good chance” humanity will discover life on another planet—possibly in the next decade. He exp
12 Major Verification Trends in 2026: Regula on the Birth of a New Digital Identity20.11.2025 14:00:00 CET | Press release
How we verify is changing — and so is who and what we verify. Are we dealing with real people, fraudsters, or machines acting on their behalf? A new Regula report on 12 identity verification trendsexamines how these shifts are forcing businesses to rebuild their verification processes to stay ahead of fraud, comply with regulations, and regain eroding customer confidence. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20251120373343/en/ Identity is leaving the human domain: Regula’s forecast illustrates the emerging need to verify systems, autonomous agents, and machine customers. The new face of fraud The identity threat landscape has entered a new industrial phase, defined by three structural shifts: Machine identity. Identity verification (IDV) is no longer limited to people. It now extends to autonomous systems acting on their behalf — AI agents that can open accounts, submit documents, and bypass checks on their own. Frau
