Quantifi Photonics sees a lot of upside by becoming part of Teradyne—one that will set the company on a new path of growth and that the two companies’ cultures align well.
In March, Teradyne announced its intention to acquire privately held Quantifi Photonics, aiming to strengthen its presence in the photonic IC testing market segment.
This acquisition will enable Teradyne to deliver scalable photonic integrated circuit (PIC) test solutions.
PIC technology leverages wafer-based manufacturing, multi-die integration, and advanced packaging with high-speed I/O interfaces to enable the rapidly evolving high-performance compute market and support AI workloads.
Iannick Monfils, co-founder and CEO of Quantifi, said that a key point was whether the two companies had a shared vision.
“The very first consideration was the fit and what was the cultural alignment,” he said during the OFC 2025 trade show. “Before we even talked about dollar values, the question was where are we going and can we achieve the same goals.”
