Intel exploratory research model Sampling Research amplification Tech development Grants New roadmap University Lab Projects University Grants & Labs Internal Research Projects Intel Capital Build Prototypes & Systems Perspective Detection Discontinuity? Concurrent Research Strategic Decision “Most true innovation happens in small environments” – John Miller Intel Capital(ICap) • Founded in 1991 • Separate from Intel Research • Small start up companies • Equity positions in developing technologies Historic Portfolio Return • More than 10 billion invested since 1991 • Over 1100 companies • 51 countries • 189 companies have gone public • 258 acquired in Mergers Current Activity • 327 million Invested in 2010 • 119 companies involved • Almost 50% invested outside of North America • 300 million is to be set aside for investment in the new idea of “Ultrabooks” Ultrabooks • Ultimate notebook • Rival Apple • 40% market share • 3 lbs weight and .8 inch thickness DRAM-Microprocessors • • • • • DRAM. Intel’s competitive advantage. Competition entering the DRAM market. Entry into the Microprocessors market. Results of entering the Microprocessors market. Branding Intel. The co-operative marketing programme. Failed Diversification • Poor M&A’s and Failed Diversification Attempts – ’99 -’02 Communications Boom – ‘04 Digital Television LCoS Chip – ‘07 Mobile Market Liquid Crystallization on Silicon (LCoS) Intel in “Post-PC” World • 2005: Mini coup for Intel - Apple announces it will abandon PowerPC and adopts Intel across its entire MacBook line • 2006: Intel exit the mobile phone market entirely • 2007: The iPhone dawns a new age in mobile computing • 2010: iPad released Intel's impact on Ethernet. Back to the future • • • • Intel science and technology centers (ISTC) Cloud computing research ISTC for embedded computing Intel Opens Submission Process for Future ISTCs Toyota teams up with Intel for next-gen car infotainment Threats Websites of Israel military and intelligence services down for 2 days Combating Multiple Embedded Security Threats • Reported vulnerabilities are at an all time high, up 36%. (IBM X-Force 2010 Mid-Year Trend and Risk Report) • • • • 76,000,000 smart electric meters worldwide 521,000,000 voice over IP users 3,000,000,000 downloads to mobile devices per year 60,000 new malware signatures are identified each and every day Solution • Intel® Quick Assist Technology provides a framework for accelerating security workloads • Intel Technology Will Eliminate Zero-Day Threats
