Lead Validation for Breakthrough Wireless Chips | Build & Scale Ixana’s Validation Team

🚀 About Ixana

Ixana, a Purdue University spinoff, is pioneering Wi-R – wireless communication that’s 100x more energy-efficient than Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. Our chips enable secure, real-time AI-powered experiences for wearables, smartglasses, and defense systems. Backed by 60 engineers across West Lafayette and Bengaluru, we’re scaling fast.

💡 The Wi-R Revolution

Wi-R is our patented non-radiative near-field communication technology that creates secure "wire-like wireless" experiences through small E-field bubbles around your body. This breakthrough enables unprecedented energy efficiency at sub-0.1 nanojoules per bit, making long-term wearable and implantable devices finally practical.
