Formation and Business of the Company | Formation and Business of the Company Rambus Inc. (“Rambus” or the “Company”) was incorporated in California in March 1990 and reincorporated in Delaware in March 1997. The Company offers a balanced and diverse portfolio of products and solutions across chips, silicon intellectual products (“IP”) and patent licensing with the goal of perpetuating strong company operating performance and delivering long-term stockholder value. The Company generates revenue by selling its semiconductor chip and licensing its IP products and inventions to market-leading companies. As an industry pioneer with over 30 years of advanced semiconductor design experience, Rambus is dedicated to addressing the challenges of accelerating and protecting data in hardware for the data center and other growing markets. With the exponential increase in the complexity, size and number of advanced workloads, like generative artificial intelligence (“AI”), the demands on computing infrastructure continue to grow. Rambus is a leader in high-performance memory subsystems, providing chips, silicon IP and innovations that maximize the performance and security in computationally-intensive systems.
