SINGAPORE, June 10, 2003 - Nano Silicon Pte Ltd, a key solution provider for analog & mixed-signal designs, today announced that it has become an IBM Business Partner program for solution providers. This is Nano Silicon's first milestone toward providing a validated "Ready for IBM Technology" design solution for IBM foundry customers (see IBM's April 9, 2003, press release "Ready for IBM Technology" program for semiconductor products expanded)

"We are excited to be part of this program. Nano Silicon plans to validate its design centre with IBM technologies by year end. The validation will be a formal testament to our strong design capability and a symbol of recognition from a leading industry provider, IBM Microelectronics." said David M Fogg, President & Chief Executive Officer of Basecomm and Nano Silicon.

After undergoing a stringent suite of silicon verification/qualification requirements, Nano Silicon customers will be able to channel all their energy to developing creative and innovative technologies with a peace of mind that design implementations are in good hands.
