our history

Kapik Integration was founded in 2008 by Martin Snelgrove, Raymond Chik, Rob McKenzie and Imran Ahmed.

For 10 years, we had been developing reliable, leading-edge intellectual property (IP) and full-chip design services to customers around the world and became one of the largest independent companies in the world focused on designing premium smart analog and mixed signal technologies.

In 2018, we had finally succeeded in fulfilling the the original founding principle of Kapik - creating spin-offs- and Untether AI was born. Not too long thereafter, Star IC (www.staric.ca) was also spun-off. This left Kapik Integration primarily a holding company.

In 2023, after 5 years of hiatus, Martin and Raymond returned to the mothership Kapik integration from Untether AI, embarking on a new direction for Kapik developing new and exciting technologies.


Kapik has grown organically from its revenues and remains almost entirely employee-owned.
