Rupert Baines, a veteran of the UK semiconductor industry, has recently joined the Nanusens board. He was key in multiple successful company sales and has many years of C-level expertise in a wide range of electronics companies, including CEO of UltraSoC (sold to Siemens) and CMO of Codasip.
Currently, he serves as CEO of QPT Ltd, a company that creates power electronics for motors with higher efficiency. Furthermore, he chairs the UKTIN Semiconductor Expert Working Group and serves as a trustee for UKESF, an organization that promotes children’s interest in electronics education.
Rupert Baines added, “The UK is a hot bed of innovation and I am always delighted to be able to help British companies fulfil their true potential. Nanusens has revolutionary technology for building nanoscale MEMS within CMOS layers for sensors and for RF Front End antenna tuners. To have a killer product where there is huge potential is amazing but to have one for two different markets is incredible.”
With its headquarters located in Paignton, Devon, England, and research and development offices situated in Barcelona, Spain, and Shenzen, China, the company was founded in 2014 by Drs. Josep Montanyà and Marc Llamas. It makes use of the knowledge and research that the founders’ prior business, Baolab Microsystems, developed. Inveready | Dieco Capital, Caixa Capital Risc and a few ultra-high net worth investors provide VC funding for Nanusens.
