Nordic Semiconductor and Yalantis Formalize Design Partner Alliance
By Drooid · · How we work
Partnership Overview
Yalantis, a Warsaw-based IoT and embedded engineering firm, has been named an official Design Partner of Nordic Semiconductor, the Norwegian chipmaker whose low-power wireless solutions power medical wearables, industrial sensors, electric-vehicle chargers, smart meters and retail systems. The designation formalizes several years of joint development on Nordic’s nRF52, nRF54 and nRF91 families and grants Yalantis deeper access to the chipmaker’s ecosystem, technical resources and development tools.
Benefits for Connected-Product Developers
The alliance is positioned to accelerate product development and reduce risk across the full lifecycle—from concept and rapid prototyping to hardware, firmware, connectivity, mobile apps, cloud integration and validation. Companies can leverage secure, power-efficient wireless designs that run for years on small batteries, obtain stronger support for regulated markets such as medical, industrial and automotive, and achieve faster time-to-market through closer integration with Nordic’s platforms. Scalable device-to-cloud architectures are also emphasized, benefiting both startups and established manufacturers in innovation hubs like Israel.
Regulatory Context
The partnership coincides with heightened regulatory scrutiny of connected devices. The European Union’s Cyber Resilience Act, introduced in September 2026 with full requirements applying from December 2027, imposes vulnerability-reporting and incident-notification duties on manufacturers of products with digital elements. Yalantis markets itself as a “compliance-first” partner, holding ISO 27001, ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 certifications and operating an in-house R&D lab that covers hardware design, PCB engineering, firmware and embedded software. Denys Hukov, Chief Growth Officer at Yalantis, notes that the alliance helps clients embed security and certification readiness from the earliest prototype stage.
Company Profiles
Nordic Semiconductor, based in Norway, supplies Bluetooth Low Energy, Bluetooth Mesh, Wi-Fi, LTE-M and NB-IoT radios that form the core of many connected products. Yalantis, founded in 2008, employs more than 400 specialists and delivers full-cycle IoT, software and hardware engineering for clients in healthcare, medtech, manufacturing, logistics, automotive and other sectors; it is also an AWS Advanced Tier Partner.
Outlook and Industry Impact
By combining Nordic’s wireless technology with Yalantis’s end-to-end engineering capabilities, the partnership aims to help firms bring complex connected products to market more quickly and with greater confidence. As connected devices proliferate in healthcare, industry, energy and mobility, such chip-partner ecosystems are becoming a key factor in shortening development cycles and meeting emerging security and certification demands.
