Coresonic AB was formed as a result of a need to develop a new wireless baseband processor architecture that was programmable but did not suffer the usual downsides of increased power consumption and cost. They were founded in 2004 based on the outcome of a three-year research project at the research center Stringent at Linköping University, Sweden. The founders include Professor Dake Liu, Dr. Eric Tell, Dr. Anders Nilsson and Professor Christer Svensson from the electrical engineering department who bring together decades of experience from research, development and marketing of semiconductors and IP. Its patented architecture offers a solution to the key issues faced by developers of baseband products for the WiMAX and 4G market. They provide a semiconductor core design and support the core with protocol specific firmware solutions. These deliver the flexibility necessary to both stay on top of the changing standards, and to cope with the myriad combinations of standards whilst using the same architecture. The optimized design delivers significant gains in power efficiency and cost over traditional programmable or DSP based architectures that are needed to drive high volume solutions. The flexibility allows wireless chip designers to gain much earlier entry to the market, whilst saving on development resource by introducing a volume competitive architecture from day one.

The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences provides research and development services on sciences. The non-profit company is based in Stockholm, Sweden.

IEEE Computer Society operates a society of institute electrical and electronics engineers. It services include digital library, publication, and conferences and events. The company was founded in 1946 and is headquartered in Washington, DC.

The Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences (IVA) is an organization that brings together around 1,300 academy members and 250 companies to bridge the gap between academia, business, and politics. The non-profit company is based in Stockholm, Sweden. The Swedish company's aim is to work towards people's ability to contribute positively to society. The organization runs an internship program called Tekniksprånget, which gives young people in Sweden the opportunity to test the engineering profession through a four-month paid internship. The program has been running since 2012 and aims to inspire more people to choose a higher technical education. The CEO of the company is Björn O. Nilsson.

Linköping University Hospital provides healthcare services.
