"We see it as a key component to our Open Access based strategy".

"Verific has business models which are directly in line with the growing field of EDA software component licensing, which makes it an excellent partner".

"We have developed a cooperative and synergistic relationship".

"Silicon Navigator is breaking new ground with its OpenAccess-based framework and engines", adds Michiel Ligthart, Verific's Chief Operating Officer.

"We're pleased to be helping change the EDA landscape by having our HDL Component Software part of its product line".
