Collaborations strengthen EdgeCortix’s sales, design-in, and technical support capabilities across Japan and key Indo-Pacific markets.
KANAGAWA, Japan (August 20, 2026) - EdgeCortix Inc., a leading fabless semiconductor company specializing in energy-efficient artificial intelligence processing at the edge, today announced strategic agreements with Hakuto Co., Ltd. and Midoriya Electric Co., Ltd., respectively, expanding the company’s commercial reach and support capabilities across the Japanese and broader Indo-Pacific markets.
The two relationships bring distinct but complementary strengths to EdgeCortix’s go-to-market strategy across Japan and the broader Asia-Pacific region.
Hakuto brings extensive semiconductor distribution and design-in expertise, an established customer base across the automotive, industrial equipment, optical communications, and data center infrastructure markets, and a rapidly expanding international footprint. Its recent acquisitions in India and Singapore extend its reach across key Asia-Pacific markets, while its capabilities in technical support, product and system development, and quality assurance enable Hakuto to support customers from the integration and evaluation of EdgeCortix’s AI technology through design engagement and commercial deployment.
“EdgeCortix is a Japan-founded AI semiconductor company with a proprietary edge AI platform that integrates hardware, software, and semiconductor IP. Through this partnership, Hakuto aims to create new business opportunities, deliver greater value to customers, and contribute to the broader adoption of AI across industrial applications”, said Masahiro Shimazu, Vice President & Managing Officer and Unit Manager of the Business Incubation Center at Hakuto Co., Ltd.
Midoriya brings deep relationships across the Japanese market together with extensive capabilities in semiconductors, electronic devices, factory automation and control systems, defense and communications infrastructure. The company delivers solutions tailored to on-site needs in high-reliability environments, including factory automation and industrial equipment, social infrastructure, defense and aerospace. Midoriya’s technical, engineering, FAE and EMS capabilities provide EdgeCortix with additional resources to support customers from evaluation and system integration through development and deployment across industrial and mission-critical applications.
“Our relationship with EdgeCortix strengthens both our positions as go-to partners for industry innovators who are enabling the next generation of AI Solution whilst accelerating their time to market”, said Yosuke Sato, Director & General Manager, 1st International Division, Midoriya Electric Co., Ltd.
Together, Hakuto and Midoriya will support EdgeCortix in reaching a broader range of customers and applications while providing the commercial, technical and engineering support needed to accelerate deployment of high-performance, energy-efficient Edge AI solutions.
“Japan and the Indo-Pacific are important markets as part of EdgeCortix’s growth strategy, and these agreements significantly strengthen our ability to support customers across the entire design-in to integration and real-world deployment phases,” said Dr. Sakyasingha Dasgupta, Founder and CEO of EdgeCortix. “Hakuto’s broad semiconductor reach across Japan and Indo-Pacific, combined with Midoriya’s deep technical, engineering and customer expertise, gives us a powerful platform to accelerate adoption of our energy-efficient Edge AI solutions across commercial, industrial and mission-critical applications.”
Together, the agreements combine Hakuto’s broad market reach and semiconductor expertise with Midoriya’s deep engineering and customer-support capabilities, strengthening EdgeCortix’s ability to support customers from evaluation and design-in through integration and deployment. They also underscore the company’s consistent commitment to expanding a partner ecosystem that accelerates adoption of energy-efficient Edge AI across commercial, industrial and mission-critical markets.
