Grenoble, France, September 23, 2019
One year ago, Soitec and MBDA acquired the assets of Dolphin Integration. The new
structure, legally named Dolphin Design, had preferred to first keep « Dolphin
Integration » as tradename to show its customers and partners that the company
remained committed to support its legacy core IP and ASIC businesses.
Though, the company has drastically evolved over this past year:
The management team welcomed new members
Philippe Berger was named by the board as new CEO in January 2019
The company moved to brand new buildings this March
A growth plan aligned with a strategy leveraging the strong company assets have
been tuned during the first semester
Since September 19 th , the company has adopted Dolphin Design as its new brand name.
“Now that Dolphin is well set up and is starting a new growth story, I wanted to mark a
turning point. Dolphin integration today becomes Dolphin Design and our brand identity
is reshaped, to reflect the company evolution.” said Philippe Berger, CEO at Dolphin
Design. “Indeed, we are moving from an IP provider to a solution provider for Energy-
Efficiency optimized systems. With our System Platform for Energy Efficient Design, we
help our users leveraging our IPs to design innovative, sustainable and accessible
SoCs. Our new brand reflects our new positioning and how we enable our customers to
explore without limits.”
Logotype:
The new logo keeps some codes of the previous design, while better representing the new company vision and positioning. Dolphin is thus pictured as a reliable partner, thanks to its 4 pillars drawing the letter O. These 4 pillars illustrate the 4 offering axes: semiconductor IPs, ASIC
services, and the Power Management & SoC platforms. They are symbolized with 4 capsules, representing the perfect
imbrication between all these components to serve the ultimate goal: chip design.
The logo font is simple and round to reflect Dolphin’s seamless offering.
Brand identity:
Dolphin Design’s new motto is “We tech it on”.
4 colors have been selected in green tones. No major color is defined to enable all the possibilities and imbrication, as in the chip design. These colors are bright and
revolutionary in the microelectronic ecosystem, illustrating the “out of the box” positioning of Dolphin’s new platform offering. The graphic items support Dolphin’s contribution to the innovations coming with the next generations of devices.
