NORDTECH’s Partnership Showcase: Q&A with Austin Hickman
Austin Hickman co-founded Soctera in 2019 while he was still a doctoral student at Cornell University. Now the Ithaca-based startup is an industry partner at the Northeast Regional Defense Technology Hub (NORDTECH), contributing to NORDTECH’s efforts to onshore microelectronics development for crucial Department of Defense missions.
Soctera is developing a power amplifier built with nitride semiconductors to achieve greater energy density, higher efficiency, and lower operating temperatures compared to the industry standard.
