SUMMARY: POWERPOINT/TALKING POINTS: Recognizing the huge potential of Anobit’s flash memory technology, Intel Capital invested significantly in the company in 2010 and helped pave the way for the company’s acquisition by Apple in 2012.

FULL STORY/BACKGROUND: In recent years, a number of high-tech companies have moved away from hard drives in favor of solid state storage, using flash memory chips to make truly mobile computing devices that are small, compact, and energy efficient. As a result, advancements in flash memory capabilities have become increasingly important. Founded in Israel in 2006, fabless semiconductor company Anobit developed a key component to improve the performance of flash memory chips. The company’s proprietary Memory Signal Processing (MSP) technology was designed to improve the speed, endurance, and performance of solid state storage systems while also driving down the cost. Working with colleagues in Intel’s Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) Solutions Group, Intel Capital recognized the huge potential of Anobit’s new technology. Plus, investment managers in Israel were already familiar with Anobit co-founders Ehud Weinstein and Ariel Maislos because both were serial entrepreneurs with successful track records. Years before, Intel Capital had invested in Weinstein’s Libit Signal Processing, acquired by Texas Instru- ments in 1999, and also in Maislos’ Passavé, acquired by PMC-Sierra in 2006. So when Weinstein and Maislos approached them regarding funding for their third investment round, Intel Capital was in. While the investment funds were extremely important, Weinstein says the relationship offered far SUPPORTING FACTS • International investing increased from less than 5 percent of Intel Capital’s investment dollars in more than just money.

<< TABLE OF CONTENTS PREVIOUS NEXT << Aternity

SUMMARY: POWERPOINT/TALKING POINTS:

Recognizing the value of Aternity, Intel Capital invested in the company in 2007 and has provided support and connections that have helped the company generate significant revenue.

FULL STORY/BACKGROUND: IT organizations face many challenges in their quest to support computing functions across an entire enterprise. One challenge, in particular, is to constantly increase end user productivity by reducing business disruptions. Aternity, an IT Management company, developed a technology that monitors any application on any physical, virtual, or mobile device providing a user-centric vantage point that closes the existing visibility gap with network- and -centric application performance management tools. By effectively transforming every device into a user experience aware self-monitoring platform, organizations can dramatically reduce business disruptions and increases user productivity. Still, no matter how innovative any solution is, breaking into Fortune 1000 enterprises is a challenge, combined with complex sales cycles. As part of a large corporation itself, Intel Capital is inherently familiar with the challenges of securing large businesses as customers. So when Intel Capital invested in Aternity in 2007, Intel Capital worked collaboratively with the company to help them through the doors of Fortune 1000 companies via events like the Intel Capital Global Summit and Intel Capital Technology Days. One particularly successful exchange took place in 2010, when Aternity President and CEO Trevor Matz was invited to participate in an Intel Capital Technology Day sponsored by a major global financial services firm based in the U.S. At the meeting, Aternity made a presentation to senior IT SUPPORTING FACTS management and technologists from the financial firm on their and the value it can • After an Intel Capital Technology Day, 80 percent of portfolio companies report some sort of provide to IT Operations and Line of Business application owners. follow-up with the host company.

<< TABLE OF CONTENTS PREVIOUS NEXT << Borqs

SUMMARY: POWERPOINT/TALKING POINTS: Intel Capital investment in Borqs opens opportunities in the mobile computing ecosystem, extending Intel’s reach and enabling joint research and development efforts worldwide.

FULL STORY/BACKGROUND: Borqs was formed in 2007, just as the mobile computing industry was taking off. Thanks in part to an investment from Intel Capital, the company has quickly risen to the forefront of the industry, commercially launching more than 40 Android* terminal products in 15 countries, with sales exceeding 4 million units. Borqs is dedicated to providing customizable, integrated Android software and hardware platform solutions and end-to-end service platform solutions for mobile operators, terminal OEMs, and chip manufacturers worldwide. The company has shipped a wide range of products, including Android phones, tablets, in-vehicle systems, and home appliances. For Intel, investing in Borqs made sense in part because of the possibility for collaboration. As just one example, in 2012, a team comprising members from Intel and Borqs joined forces in an office in Paris. Within six months, the team had successfully transplanted the Android to the platform of Orange, a major French operator. Borqs is now involved in the research and development of every next-generation chip that Intel releases for the mobile ecosystem, including as well as tablets. With the help of the Intel Capital investment, Borqs has also expanded its focus to vehicle systems, wearable devices, and even a satellite communications program. Borqs is also an active participant in Intel Capital Technology Days, annual Global Summits, and other Intel Capital business development events. The company views these events as a valuable SUPPORTING FACTS way to extend its business network and grow the business regionally and globally. • Intel Capital made its first investment in China in1998 and has since invested more than $670 million in over 110 technology companies—more than 30 of which have gone public Moving forward, Borqs is expected to continue expanding its operations in the fast-growing or been acquired. mobile industry, in part through its joint research and development efforts with Intel, as well as • Intel Capital’s focus areas include Datacenters and Cloud Computing, Mobility, and the potential customers that Intel is introducing to the company.

<< TABLE OF CONTENTS PREVIOUS NEXT << Crisp Media

SUMMARY: POWERPOINT/TALKING POINTS: Recognizing the rapid growth in mobile media consumption, Intel Capital invested in Crisp Media, a leading provider of premium mobile advertising technology. Five years later, Intel Capital continues to introduce Crisp Media to major Global 2000 accounts through Intel Capital Technology Days and other networking events worldwide.

FULL STORY/BACKGROUND: A foot in the door—that’s all many good, young companies need to achieve the next level of success. That was the case for Crisp Media, which had run digital ad campaigns for various cable channels, but hadn’t broken in with a major broadcast channel—until Intel Capital arranged a meeting with one of the top broadcasting networks in the U.S. The meeting took place in June 2012 as part of an Intel Capital Technology Day, which connects Intel Capital portfolio companies with top executives from Global 2000 companies. The broadcasting network had vetted the potential presenters and chosen Crisp Media as one of a handful of companies to meet with on that day. After a 30-minute presentation in front of several of the network’s primary decision-makers, Crisp Media was on its way to its first major broadcast TV customer. Just six months after that initial meeting, Crisp Media rolled out a strategic mobile ad campaign for the top broadcasting network’s new TV show. More than 10 million viewers tuned in to the series premiere, driven in part by Crisp Media’s interactive mobile ads. The campaign, which included a custom-designed entertainment channel and four banner ads, garnered exceptionally high video play-through and replay rates, with nearly one in 10 users replaying the 30-second video trailer. Over the past 18 months, Crisp Media has attended additional Intel Capital Technology Days as SUPPORTING FACTS well as the Intel Capital Global Summit, leading to business opportunities with other companies • In 2012, Intel Capital hosted 76 Intel Capital Technology Days worldwide, resulting in more than including Intel’s corporate marketing group.

<< TABLE OF CONTENTS PREVIOUS NEXT << Fulcrum Microsystems

SUMMARY: POWERPOINT/TALKING POINTS: Recognizing the strategic importance of Fulcrum’s work in the cloud, Intel Capital decided not only to invest in the company, but to acquire it, in order to drive the next generation of technological innovation.

FULL STORY/BACKGROUND: In 2000, CalTech grads Uri Cummings and Andrew Lines founded Fulcrum Microsystems, a start-up based on the idea that asynchronous logic could be used to make integrated circuits more efficient. In 2007, Fulcrum hit its stride with the development of a unique 10-G Ethernet switch that could deliver faster connections, as well as potential power savings, for customers. Throughout Fulcrum’s development, Intel Capital paid attention. Because of the relevance to Intel’s own work—after­ all, Fulcrum was in an adjacent market segment, its silicon switches sitting right next to and communicating with Intel network interface cards—it­ made sense to keep tabs on the company. Additionally, Intel had worked for years on making microprocessors faster; if those processors encountered a bottleneck or a slow connection to the rest of the world, those efforts were for naught. Recognizing the myriad of ways that the two companies could benefit from association with the other, Intel Capital invested in the company in 2010. As Fulcrum CEO Bob Nunn reports, “The Intel Capital investment meant far more than money. It meant insight into the industry.” As part of the agreement, Intel Capital asked Fulcrum to meet quarterly, not only with Intel Capital’s investment team, but also with Intel technical personnel. As a result, both parties stepped up to share data as well as strategic input regarding their businesses. Both benefited from this open exchange of information. In fact, the collaborative process was so successful that it resulted in Intel acquiring Fulcrum roughly a year later, in 2011. SUPPORTING FACTS “Within months,” says Nunn, now General Manager for Networking Platform Solutions at Intel, “we • Intel Capital has a 7 person M&A team dedicated to structuring, negotiating and closing took a dramatic shift in direction, with much bigger potential for impact on the industry and the Intel acquisitions. way things are connected together, improving the efficiency of the next generation data center.

<< TABLE OF CONTENTS PREVIOUS NEXT << Gudeng

SUMMARY: POWERPOINT/TALKING POINTS: After receiving Intel Capital investment, Gudeng morphs from small semiconductor supply manufacturer to one of the world’s leading photomask and wafer handling solution providers.

FULL STORY/BACKGROUND: When Bill Chiu founded Gudeng Precision Industrial in 1998, he made it clear that someday he wanted to take this small company public. His goal received a major boost a few years later, when Intel Capital invested in his company. Gudeng produces wafer and reticle handling devices, which protect the highly valuable lithography photomasks used in processing silicon wafers for semiconductor production. After working extensively with Intel’s Technology Manufacturing Group to evaluate the semicon- ductor market and economics in Taiwan, Intel Capital invested in Gudeng in 2009. The value Gudeng received from Intel Capital’s investment was felt immediately and extended well beyond the financial support. In addition to lending credibility to the small company, Intel intro- duced Gudeng to the semiconductor community and to numerous global businesses that eventually became major customers. Within the year, Gudeng’s profits doubled, and just two years later, Chiu achieved his goal of taking the company public. Gudeng is now considered one of the world’s leading photomask and wafer handling solution providers and is leading the way in developing the new industry standards necessary to support semiconductor industry innovation. SUPPORTING FACTS • Intel Capital has been an active investor in Taiwan since 1999. • Intel Capital has invested over USD 260 million in more than 40 Taiwanese technology companies.

SUMMARY: POWERPOINT/TALKING POINTS: IPTEGO’s products help service providers worldwide quickly and securely migrate to IP networks, making the rapidly growing German company an ideal target for Intel Capital investment.

FULL STORY/BACKGROUND: As co-founder of IPTEGO, Ulrich Abend knew the company’s product would sell—if only they could get the worldwide exposure and sales support they needed. IPTEGO’s flagship product, Palladion Software Suite, provides unprecedented insight into VoIP and unified communications networks, and is an ideal tool to help service providers migrate to IP networks. The product drew interest in Germany and attracted a couple small customers in the U.S., but Abend and other executives knew that the small company would need outside help to scale quickly and effectively. Intel Capital recognized the company’s promise and its strong management team, and in 2010 invested money that IPTEGO used to fund its sales and marketing effort worldwide, as well as broaden the product portfolio and accelerate time to market. Along with providing financial and strategic support, Intel Capital helped IPTEGO establish connections with potential customers at events such as Intel Capital Technology Days, which bring Intel Capital companies together with key executives from Global 2000 companies. Abend said that one such event in Kenya gave IPTEGO a foothold that it has since expanded to include several African countries. Today, IPTEGO has customers in Europe and the Middle East, as well as Africa and the U.S.—and the company’s revenue tripled in the two years following Intel Capital’s investment.

SUMMARY: POWERPOINT/TALKING POINTS: Seeing the potential for a quality e-retailer in Eastern Europe, Intel Capital invested in Mall.cz and assisted the company through the shift from flexible start-up to scalable corporation, resulting in the company’s acquisition by Naspers in 2012.

FULL STORY/BACKGROUND: When Ondrej Fryc renovated his Prague flat, he searched the Internet to purchase a washing machine based on a requirement/wish list—top-loading versus side-loading, color, capacity, and dimensions. However, the sites he found offered only full-text search options, assuming he already knew the brand and model he wanted and was just searching the Web for a better deal. But that was not the case. To remedy this problem for shoppers like him, Fryc founded Mall.cz, an online retailer that brings both shopping and style advice to Eastern European markets. From the time Mall.cz was founded in 2000, the company attracted thousands of users. By 2001, the company generated a profit, which increased by 300 percent each year over the next several years, funded only by its own cash flow. By 2007, Mall.cz had come to a crucial juncture. To keep growing, the company would have to make the difficult and expensive transition from a small startup to a scalable corporation. And the timing—coinciding with the financial crisis in Europe—couldn’t be worse. Fryc realized that bringing an investor on board could provide the safety net his business needed. Intel Capital, recognizing the potential of a quality e-retailer in this region of the world as well as the promise of its dynamic, young CEO, had already expressed interest. From Fryc’s point of view, Intel Capital had not only the money, but the stability to weather the crisis. SUPPORTING FACTS • Intel Capital invests continually through up and down cycles.

SUMMARY: POWERPOINT/TALKING POINTS: Intel Capital investment helps Solera Networks experience triple-digit growth over two years and become the leading provider of big data security analytics and advanced threat protection, leading to acquisition by Blue Coat Systems.

FULL STORY/BACKGROUND: By 2012, eight years after its founding, Solera Networks had developed the security industry’s only Security Analytics Virtual Appliance and the only software-based solution for advanced threat protection using big data security analytics. To continue its growth, the company needed to rapidly expand its sales and marketing efforts and strengthen its brand with Fortune 500 and government customers.

SUMMARY: POWERPOINT/TALKING POINTS: Intel Capital investment, events, and connections help SweetLabs develop partnership with Lenovo and grow to become one of the world’s largest app distribution platforms.

FULL STORY/BACKGROUND: SweetLabs knew that Intel Capital’s investment would make it possible to open a new office in Seattle and develop its application platform. What the company didn’t know was that the relationship with Intel Capital would also lead to the largest OEM deal in company history. During the 2012 Intel Capital Global Summit, Carey Lai, Intel Capital’s investment director for SweetLabs, spoke with a Lenovo executive about the potential synergy between SweetLabs and the world’s largest PC manufacturer. Later, after hearing SweetLabs co-founder Chester Ng talk about SweetLabs at the event, the Lenovo executive pulled him aside—and the rest was history.

SUMMARY: POWERPOINT/TALKING POINTS: Recognizing the huge potential of V-Cube’s video conferencing service, Intel Capital invests in the company and helps extend its reach beyond Japan, into the Asian Pacific region.

FULL STORY/BACKGROUND: When V-Cube founder Naoaki Mashita and coworkers encountered problems setting up a video conference several years ago in their Tokyo-based business, Mashita had a light-bulb moment. In Asian culture, business contacts are not fond of teleconferences; they prefer to see the people they are communicating with so they can read visual cues. But, at the time, there was no reliable, secure way to conduct video conferencing. So the potential for creating an Asian market service was huge. Soon, Mashita had turned his company into a premiere, Web-based video-conferencing service. Targeting businesses, offerings include video conferencing, webcasting and online seminars, along with features that enable participants to see multiple parties or share work on the screen. The system can be used anytime, anywhere, by anyone, via PCs, smartphones, or tablets— no software download required. Before long, V-Cube had become a market leader for video conferencing in Japan. But Mashita had a bigger vision. He wanted to expand the service into other markets. He wanted to go global. The investment team at Intel Capital recognized the potential of the energetic, young CEO, as well as the promise of his business, and invested in the company in 2009.

SUMMARY: POWERPOINT/TALKING POINTS: In the early days of enterprise cloud computing, Intel Capital invested in Virtustream, a cloud software and solution provider that integrated Intel® technologies and leveraged Intel Capital connections to drive significant growth.

FULL STORY/BACKGROUND: After Intel Capital invested in a one-year-old startup company called Virtustream, Intel and Intel Capital worked hard to foster Virtustream’s success. First, the Intel ESS Account Team (Ray Yep, Laurie Martin, John Stewart) worked with Intel Capital’s Mark Rostick and Scott Goering to connect Virtustream with their many Fortune 1000 clients due to synergies between Intel and Virtustream—a first for the Intel ESS field team who had never before been assigned to directly support an Intel Capital portfolio company. In addition, the Intel ESS field teams and Intel Capital also introduced the young company to potential customers through numerous Intel Capital Global Summits, Intel Capital Technology Days and various third party conferences and industry events. The efforts, combined with excellent execution by Virtustream’s management team, paid off. Virtustream’s accelerated sales and marketing efforts have led to almost 100 percent year-over-year growth since Intel Capital’s initial 2010 investment. Key to Virtustream’s initial success was the coordinated enablement activity between Intel’s engineering teams and Virtustream. Virtustream was one of the first cloud service providers to address the demand of the Enterprise market for an enterprise class cloud solution that could run complex, mission critical ERP systems, such as SAP, in the cloud.

<< TABLE OF CONTENTS PREVIOUS NEXT << WSO2

SUMMARY: POWERPOINT/TALKING POINTS: Convinced that WSO2’s innovation was significant enough to outweigh any risks, including the fact that the company was based in a country engaged in a civil war, Intel Capital invested in the Sri Lankan start-up and helped catapult the company into the global marketplace.

FULL STORY/BACKGROUND: After working in the Web services industry in the U.S. for several years, Sanjiva Weerawarana observed that traditional enterprise software seemed neither developer-friendly, nor customer- friendly. Weerawarana had a vision for next generation software architecture that would address existing issues, but his then-employer did not share that vision. As a result, he and Paul Fremantle, a colleague from the U.K., founded their own company, WSO2, and based it in Sri Lanka, Weerawa- rana’s beloved home country. Their goal: to create a top-notch middleware IT company, capable of serving clients around the globe. The challenges were many. For starters, investors were hesitant to fund a high-tech company so far from Silicon Valley—many had no idea where Sri Lanka was even located. Then, there was the fact that Sri Lanka was not recognized as a high-tech mecca, so how could a company from such a remote locale possibly succeed in the global high-tech marketplace? And, perhaps worst of all, Sri Lanka was in the midst of a civil war. But with offices on every continent and intricate knowledge of the global marketplace, Intel Capital could not only pinpoint Sri Lanka on a map, investors there realized WSO2’s innovation was significant enough to outweigh the risks. They believed in the value of the product, the expertise of the CEO, and the potential of the company’s unique open source marketing approach. As a result, Intel Capital was the first investor to back the company in 2006. And again in 2008, SUPPORTING FACTS 2010, and 2012—demonstrating Intel Capital’s commitment to continued support through • International investing increased from less than five percent of Intel Capital’s investment follow-on rounds. dollars in 1998 to about 57 percent in 2012.
