How did VM Labs and NUON get started?
The basic architectural ideas were formed in early 1995. After seed funding the architecture was developed in detail, carefully modeled and simulated and subsequently turned into silicon. The original core development team consisted of less than 15 engineers from a variety of backgrounds in videogames, graphics, tools and chip design. VM Labs now has over 40 engineers and expects to increase to at least 60 by the end of this year. This is in addition to the substantial engineering teams dedicated to NUON by VM Labs’ partners and licensees.
