# Noah Sturcken

> Noah Sturcken is the founder and CEO of Ferric, a New York semiconductor company building the world's smallest, most efficient power converters. A Columbia PhD who turned his dissertation into a company, he pioneered integrated voltage regulators (IVRs) that bury thin-film magnetic inductors inside the chip itself, shrinking power delivery by more than 10x. As AI processors grow ever hungrier for clean, dense power, Ferric's tech sits exactly where the bottleneck is - and partners like Marvell are now building it into custom AI silicon.
