It’s been an exciting season at Moores LabAI, defined by momentum, recognition, and the kind of conversations that remind us why we started. From the energy of this year’s AI Infra Summit to bringing on new team members, every milestone feels connected by a shared purpose: building tools that help engineers think bigger, move faster, and create with more freedom.
We’re thrilled to share that Moores LabAI has been nominated for Opportunity Austin’s 2025 A-LIST Awards as an Emerging Startup. Being recognized among Austin’s leading innovators is both an honor and a moment of reflection, one that reminds us how far this vision has come and how much more there is to build.
The A-LIST Awards celebrate the companies driving innovation across Austin’s thriving tech ecosystem, a community defined by its bold ideas and ability to execute. To stand alongside these organizations as peers is incredibly meaningful. It speaks to the power of what’s possible when engineering discipline meets creative ambition, and when a team believes that the hardest problems are the ones worth solving.
For our team, this nomination marks a collective effort that started with a simple but ambitious idea: that AI could make silicon engineering faster, smarter, and more human. Since those early days, our focus has been on creating technology that doesn’t just automate but collaborates. That mission has carried us from our first prototypes to working hand in hand with engineers who are reshaping how verification gets done.
Winners will be announced at the Opportunity Austin A-LIST Awards ceremony on October 29. We’re proud to be part of a group that’s pushing boundaries and defining what the next decade of innovation in Austin and tech will look like.
Looking Ahead: Verification Futures Summit
Recognition is energizing, but what keeps us moving is creating the future. On November 12, we will speak as part the Verification Futures Summit in our own backyard. The conference is a key gathering for engineers, technologists, and thought leaders shaping the future of chip design verification.
As system complexity continues to rise and AI becomes integral to every layer of chip design, events like this are where collaboration meets progress. Verification Futures provides the space to continue to ask the necessary questions: How do we balance automation with trust? How do we integrate AI responsibly into critical workflows? Most importantly, how can engineers reclaim time for the creative, high-value work that moves the industry forward?
These are the conversations that define how silicon will be built in the years ahead, and we’re eager to contribute, learn, and keep pushing the boundaries of what’s possible together.
