Codeplay heads to Japan with EU Trade Mission
January 2007
Edinburgh-based Codeplay Software Limited has been selected as one of only four UK companies to take part in the forthcoming (29 January to 2nd February 2007) EU Gateway to Japan ICT Trade Mission.

Codeplay will be promoting its patented ‘Sieve’ auto-parallelising compiler technology as a means to fully exploit the power of emerging multi-core processors.

Andrew Richards, MD of Codeplay, said “we are delighted to have won a place on this Trade Mission and we anticipate that we will make many high-level contacts in Japanese companies as a result. The Mission has a prestige value in the eyes of potential customers and has real value for us in terms of the quality of advice and guidance on how to enter the Japanese market that is provided. Equally important is the financial support, given as part of the Mission, to research the market opportunity and the hands-on support given by commercial advisers from the British Embassy”.


About Codeplay

Codeplay specialises in development of compiler technologies for parallel systems and multi-core processors. Key areas of demand arise from suppliers to the mobile phone industry, for small compilers and for shader compilers, and from suppliers of multi-core processing devices for compilers which can exploit potential for parallelism in execution of software code. Codeplay markets its products to a global market with major clients in the US and UK.
 

About the ‘Gateway to Japan’ ICT Trade Mission

The Mission, for which companies were selected by competition, is part of an export promotion programme ‘Gateway to Japan’ funded by the European Commission. The programme assists small and medium-sized EU companies in their efforts to export to Japan.

The ICT Trade Mission will aim to identify opportunities for European companies in the five market segments considered by JETRO (Japan External Trade Organisation) to have the most promising future: networks, platforms, home networks, infrastructure and commerce.
