It all begins with an idea.

Hudson Design Exchange (HDX) is a bold new vision for the future of integrated circuit (IC) design. HDX is the first-of-its-kind design center dedicated to accelerating the next generation of chips powering artificial intelligence, advanced computing, and national security.

As the critical missing link in New York’s globally recognized semiconductor ecosystem, HDX brings together IC design companies, EDA innovators, academic partners, and workforce programs under one roof in a mixes-use building — fostering seamless collaboration from architecture to fabrication.

We believe that world-class innovation should be accessible. That’s why HDX is designed to support teams of all sizes — from early-stage startups to global design leaders — with a collaborative environment, shared tools, and strategic connections to manufacturing partners, advanced packaging hubs, prototype facilities, and research hubs.

HDX isn’t just a building — it’s a movement. A new model for how design talent, technology, and place come together to shape the future of semiconductors in the U.S.
